I bought stuff from LUSH intending for it to be here for Valentine's Day... and it's still not here. In fact, it's due to arrive on the TWENTY THIRD! I ordered it on THE NINTH!!!! WTF?!

Anyway, I ordered twice, because the first time I didn't know about the Big Frees OR the BOGO thing.

Soft Coeur (the Honeymooner)
Chocolate Whipstick
Honey I Washed The Kids Soap
Rock Star Soap

Snowcake Soap
MA BAR
Candy Fluff
Smitten Hand Cream
American Cream
Sea Vegetable Soap
Butterball
Sandstone Soap
Avobath x2 (my BOGO, although on second thought, I should've gotten HITWK)
Waving Not Drowning

All I can say is... They better send me my Big Frees and some samples! I've never tried LUSH and this is kinda expensive just for soap... I mean, a $6 bath bomb? Daaaaamn. You NEVER hear me complaining about expensive, so I'm kinda worried. I just spent $100 on a bunch of products from a company that I've never tried.

Did I mention that I got a raise?

I'm getting another raise sometime next month, too. More $$$ = More MAKEUP!

Really, it should be save more, but... I can't help myself...

I'm actually thinking about ordering Two Timing Tart, Soap Sod, Demon In The Dark Soap, Angels Delight, Cereology and another HIWTK and Snowcake. WHY?! I don't understand what my problem is.

I HATE waiting forever for orders. I haven't gotten a tracking number for CB or BPAL yet, and I haven't gotten one for my second LUSH order... I'm getting pissed. Now, I knew BPAL can take up to 2 months to ship, but the other two should have mentioned the long shipping/processing times somewhere... It seriously makes me want to eBay this stuff instead of buying it from the actual retailer.

Ironic... I see a lot of people selling their Big Frees gifts on eBay right now...

EDIT:

Ok. I caved. I got:
Demon In The Dark Soap
Angels Delight
Cereology
Snowcake Soap
Figs and Leaves Soap
Soap Sod
Blue Skies
Fresh Farmacy
Two Timing Tart
Mange Too

And that's IT! No more LUSH... Unless I'm hooked and I need more of whatever. I pretty much got all of what I wanted, save the few things I'm on the fence about. We'll see.

I had to get Waving Not Drowning cause it reminds me of a line from a Bush song- Are you drowning or waving? Need you to save me... I know, it's a poem by whoever, I saw it in my AP Lit book in high school, but Bush is close to my heart.

I'm having an issue with Lush on the name of Mange Too. I know that it's Mange- the word for "Eat" cause I'm Italian and you're always hearing your grandfather telling you, "Mangia! Mangia!" so I'm assuming Mange is French, like the Italian Mangia... I just can't help but think of mange.. The dog parasite...

Mange is kinda like lice and it's really not something you'd want to name a product after... It looks like a treatment more than an edible massage bar... But, whatever, I didn't name it.

Now to wait another 2 months for my damn orders to ship. No free shipping, either! I must be crazy.
