I have a ton of stuff to do and no desire or brainpower to do it.
Oh, hey, that sounds familiar.
At least I finished the rest of my taxes last night, with state and city taxes stuffed into fat, stamped envelopes in my purse.

Mouse, perhaps.
It's stopped so I can stop not dealing with it.

I wish I had a dishwasher, but wouldn't trade for it. See above re: single, not really that many dishes, really.
I really only miss one when I cook a big dinner for game night. I hate the waste of paper plates, but I only have one small sink.
I dread the day I feel I "need" a cell phone.

I dread the day I feel I "need" a cell phone.
It took years to convince me of its necessity, but after car accidents, getting lost, getting bumped from flights, running late, herding cats, medical emergencies, coordinating weddings, and text-messaging bitchy notes from the tarmac, I won't go farther than down the street for beer without my cell phone.

Ann, that's a ferret.
We have all 3, and I'd give up the cell phone soonest. I rarely use it except to coordinate the commute with Hubs. And we have phones in our offices -- and in a real pinch, there are pay phones in the Metro.
Then -- maybe the dishwasher. It'd be an excuse to play in water, and the 2 of us don't use a ton of dishes.
You can take the TiVo when you can pry it from my cold, dead fingers. I'm too hooked on watching TV around my schedule instead of the broadcasters'.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
For a long time after we moved into this apartment without a dishwasher, I couldn't even cook for myself because washing dishes was such a chore. Now it's not such a big deal-- I don't know what happened, I think I just changed things so that the tools were easier to use or something. I washed dishes four times on Sunday from cooking breakfast and dinner. But still fantasizing about a fullsize kitchen and a dishwasher the whole time.
ETA: the iPod made a big difference to the pain of dish washing, too.

Since we don't have a TiVo I'd give that up first. We don't use our cell phone much so I'd give that up pretty easily. It would be hard to give up the dishwasher with two kids and an adult home all day generating dishes to wash. On a weekend day when I do a fair amount of cooking I can end up with three dishwasher loads in one day. On a week day, it's almost normal for me to do a full dishwasher load and hand wash the overflow.
