I know I'm a nut, and I hate to admit this, but when I got my first
apartment I went out and bought a portable dishwasher before I bought a
sofa. I absolutely loath washing dishes. :-) This probably stems from
never having to wash so much as a glass when I was growing up. We always
had either people and/or machines to do this. The process just wasn't part
of my life.
