thinking ahead

lotusbiosmSo, today at work someone had the IKEA catalog, which I was browsing through. They had a page of basically an entire bedroom set for under $400. I've gotta move eventually, and it's something I think about, so I thought I should make a list of what I have and what I need. This is mostly for my own reference, but if you can think of something I need and don't have listed, or know that something I'm looking at is crap (or great), let me know.
I have:
A futon (that's actually comfortable)
a chair (good for sitting and such, not a desk chair though)
a bookcase (3 shelves)
a folding tv tray table
3 milk crates
A TV/DVD combo and a VCR
Queen size sheets and a comforter, pillows, towels.
A steamer trunk, suitcases, a plastic tub
A George Foreman Grill
some curtains
I need:
Kitchen stuff: (not including obvious major appliances)
pots and pans (at least two saucepans and one frying pan/skillet)
silverware
plates and bowls
drinking vessels (I have some mugs and plastic cups, so other things are more important).
Knives
a cutting board
measuring cups and spoons
I'm thinking about this for starters.
A Microwave
a dishrack
kitchen towels and potholders
Bedroom stuff:
a bed (mattress really, being more important than the frame)
a dresser
a nightstand (although my trunk works fine as one if I don't need to open it on a regular basis)
other:
a shower curtain
a real couch
a desk
a desk chair
more shelving/storage
a dining room/kitchen table and chairs
I'd like
Tea kettle
tea pot
crock pot
toaster oven
area rugs
a Washer and Dryer
I figure if I move, I could sleep on the futon for a while until I got a bed, so the kitchen things would be priority number one, and then bedroom stuff, and then other rooms as they might exist.
