Ok, thanks for the reply back!
I found a good rate at a hotel and prepaid that too. So I printed out that information, as well as put it on the visa application form as to where I'll be staying.
My trip isn't until November, but I'd rather get the visa now so I know I'm safe. Plus traffic in Texas seems much lighter in summer (I'm just doing a daytrip to Houston tomorrow, might go longer for the pickup).
