No opportunities for trains, buses, planes, something where you aren't driving?

Well... In the long run, I need my car. I'm driving to Virginia, and then when that weeks over, I'm driving back to New York when I live and go to school.
And yea, I intend everything to be packed before I go to work that last day. So All I'll have to do is load a few things into the car before I leave. In an effort to minimize the time awake, because you're right... It's going to be a long stretch.
I've driven through the night before on some long trips (although not that long). And this wont be the first time I've been up for over a day, but...
In my expirience, dawn helps. Your body being programmed to wake up with the new day.
(As far as irresponsibility goes, I'd really like to do it all in one shot... However, if it starts getting rough, I don't have a problem getting a room somewhere. I intend that to be the backup plan though. Btw... How late to hotels generally allow check in?)
