Bottling doens't really bother me that much.
I agree that it can be a little arduous at times, and I am planning to go for a keg as well when time comes for that, but I find it lovely also to have bottles ready to be brought a long if going somewhere where the beer is bound to be inferior.
My suggestion is really the following:
Whenever you've had a beer, rinse out the bottle. You don't have to be religious about it, just what you'd say was a good clean bottle. On bottling day, what I do is place a really good load of the bottles in the kitchen sink and pour boiling water over the top of them, getting a nice bit of the water inside the bottles, too. I then close the caps (I use flip-tops, which I find much preferable to normal caps) shake the bottle and leave them a bit. This way you've effectively desinfected your bottle.
When you've done this to all your bottles, you can start bottling. Bottle close to your sink. Open the bottle, pour the water into the sink and fill with beer, after which you close the bottle right away.
She Who Must Be Obeyed (Rumpole rocks) usually gives me a hand, but if I do it myself, this process takes about an hour and not really more. That however, assumes clean bottles.
I'm looking forward to kegs, but I will always bottle a good amount of my beer.
Cheers,
