The story is that he sprained his back while packing and moving the night before...
Yeah, because he can't afford movers.
I tell you, it's because his human shell started to break down a day early.

Bush: Dick, what're ya doin'?
Cheney: Moving!
Bush: Dick, we have guys for that.
Cheney: They cannot be allowed to move my equipment!
Bush: Equipment for what?
Cheney: My Lazarus Pit!
Bush: What's that?
Cheney: Just grab the other end, okay?
Bush: Okay...wait, let me get a grip...
CRASH!
Cheney: Oh, shit, my back!
Bush: You should've gotten more exercise, like me. I cleared brush!
Cheney: I was kinda busy UNDERMINING DEMOCRACY FOR PROFIT, you buffoon!
Bush: I am not a monkey!
(Sorry. I guess I'm kinda giddy.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Yeah, because he can't afford movers.
I assume the boxes in question were filled with documents third parties are not allowed to touch.
Or, as you surmised yesterday, it's all a cover story for his human shell starting to disintegrate.

My in-laws are not happy that Cheney is staying in VA, btw. They were hoping to get the entire administration out of their backyard.

How tired am I? I, for no reason I can fathom, have "I wish I was 18 again" by George Burns playing in my head, and I am powerless to stop it. I am that tired.

Cheney: My Lazarus Pit!
Maybe that's why he's only moving to VA. Shipping those things is a bitch.

Or maybe they had to hobble him to get him in his travelling crate?
ETA Of course, that's dangerous, because there's nothing more dangerous than a wounded Cheney. I think nuke from orbit is the only safe option.
