Joel and I have just talked about our future home. By future I mean a house that we would design and own, as right now Jo is renting an apartment in SF and we would most likely keep renting for the next few years (Jo wants to stay in the city and not move to the suburbs, and from his stories I gather that a house or even an aparment / condo unit is crazy expensive)

We're both architects so that could lead to a lot of design battles, but luckily we've got similar tastes when it comes to design. I'm pretty happy to leave the design to him, as admittedly he is the better designer. I get to do the scheduling, budgeting, and construction supervision - I'm the project manager heheh.

I've got a few wants only:
1.A tub
I've never had a tub at home and take advantage of every hotel stay I get, so I want one for my 3x a week bubble bath.

2.Hot water
Jo says this is standard in the States so goody good good, although I will miss my trusty yellow portable plug-heater and the little shocks I get when I accidentally electrocute myself in the morning (now that's a wake up call)

3.Kick-ass Vacuum Cleaner
Wet AND Dry 2 way suction power! And it's got to look pretty too.

4.Coffee-maker
I had always wanted a human (male) coffee maker dressed in nothing but an apron. He would make me coffee and take it to me while I was sleeping. I would then drop my spoon and say "Oops! dropped my spoon, would you be so kind as to bend over and pick it up?? Sweetie??" Manyak alert!!!

I don't think that's feasible with Jo around as he would probably roll me out of bed into the street, so a high-tech Espresso maker with steam controls would do.
