It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

So, should one last one bath, or do you like fish it out and use it a few times? Help a bathbomb virgin out!

One should last one bath. I know some people who cut them in half and use it for two baths that way, but it depends on the size of your tub and how strong you want the smell and how strong that particular one is to begin with. Because of the way it dissolves, you can't really fish it out once it's gotten wet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If you have a sparkly one, you might want to start with halfsies. They're intense.

You can either use the whole thing, Lilty, or cut it in half and use half at a time. For a Lush virgin, though, you should really use the whole thing the first time. You can't fish it out. Once it's wet, it's gone. I'll return Hans when I'm finished with him -- 2006, 2010.. not too long.

Ginger, did I make a mistake? Was it you who offered? Cuz, that would rock too. The new meds (elavil) seem to be making me sleepy dopey, which I suppose is good. This is my first dose, so Greg thinks it's the placebo effect. Either that or the pizza fight the babies had at dinner confused me and made me take two of my muscle relaxer.

Kristin, you gorgeous creature, the things I'm learning and re-learning for the current client are going to make things so much easier.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh! And if it has bits of stuff in it (flowers, petals, bits of cinnamon), you might want to put it into a knee-high that you don't want anymore. That way, when you throw it in the water, it fizzes etc., but the bits of stuff don't get all over, or in places they don't belong. (You DON'T want cinnamon bits near your bum. Trust me.)

One of my first ones had paper streamers in it and I did not know the Steph advice. It was (more than) a bit messy and I was afraid I'd done something wrong. I think one of the (largest) bits of paper was a union jack or something. I like letting them float free when they're just glittery, though.

Sail, if you're sharing and it's no trouble, I'd really love to have a copy of the Deb glorification project.

I only have the one copy. I'd be glad to send it for viewing. If you don't mind waiting, I can see what I can do about making another.

I first heard it from Jessica. I hate to bogart the credit.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

I have two- one glittery and one not glittery. My plan was to use the not glittery one tonight and save the glitter for when I'm going out, or not to bed alone, or just really freaking need glitter.

Ahh, good to see that there's still nothing pulls the hivemind together like Lush talk.

Also, my bathbomb has a little candy piece in it, I think, nothing messy and/or painful. But the knee high idea is a fantabulous one, Steph.

Bath then sleep. Night, my lovelies.

PS- Deena, how about Hans commutes? Or, he can tour the Buffistas with David Evangelista.

Yes, the Jessica by way of Steph advice.

Well, Sail, since Ginger's offering, how about I take her up on it and then you don't have to sweat it? I could make a bath bomb and/or soap in exchange? Ginger? Sweetheart? darling? ....

hmmm. I may have to work on my technique.

eta: A Hans commute could work, I suppose. As long as I get him regularly, along with that Evangelista guy, and his budget.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Deena, it's all good, because we'll just get them a private jet. Since we've got an hour (or two?) timezone wise, I'll get them in the morning, then they can hop the jet and be over to you by the time you're up!

(Really not here now)
