...so level with me, how many five hour energy drinks can you have in say, two hours? 'Cause one just isn't cutting it.

This building is so depressing on Saturdays.

Oh! To give me something to look forward to--anyone have LUSH recommendations? I think that is what I'm getting my sister for Christmas this year.

They have some of the most swooningly gorgeous Christmas gift boxes I've ever seen. "SNOW This Christmas" has the most beautiful box, and a lot of gorgeous theme-related products inside. But scent is so specific with some people, you really should try to get a sense of what she favors -- I know that in my own case, getting foody scents like gingerbread, cinnamon vanilla, chocolate, orange and lemon-scented products, or any mint-scent, would make me happy, but getting something strongly floral would not make me happy. With scents, YMMV is a real thing to think about.

Massage bars are an awesome invention, they are designed to have a wonderful feel in the hand and they last a long time, good value for money. Get an enclosed soap-or-massage-bar box at LUSH (they sell a metal one) or at a drug store (I prefer a plastic one that I can stick in the dishwasher) to give it with, because you really do need to protect it or it could collect dust or get the other things in the bedside drawer you stash it in sticky. I love the citrusy organic Therapy bar best!

I know this is going to sound a little crazy, but if you're gonna give her a vividly-colored red or orange bath bomb, you could also give her a nice bottle of Soft Scrub as a joke, if she's that kind of person! (My sister is the kind of freakishly-practical person that would bring a smile to.) They dye your tub like an Easter egg, but Soft Scrub does the trick and gets it white (or whatever color it's supposed to be) again very quickly. Last time I looked, the LUSH boards were all a-twitter about how certain bath bombs dyed porcelain, and it doesn't look like the LUSH company did anything about the complaints with regard to changing products.
