Lush life means a life of luxury with an exciting night life, a sophisticated outlook, and plenty of partying. It may have originated with the song Billy Strayhorn wrote for Duke Ellington's band in the 1930s in which he speaks of a weariness of "jazz and cocktails," and "women with sullen and sad grey faces" after a love affair has gone bad. That song, along with "Take The A Train," became classics for Ellington.
His lush life came to an end when he ran out of money and his friends ran out on him.

Lush Nesting 

When a girl or woman, typically intoxicated, strategically stores her things in a man's room during a party or get-together with intentions of coercing him into letting her stay the night. This strategy should not be confused with the idea of a girl simply placing her belongings in the said gentleman's room to be picked up later. She purposefully places her things in niches of the room that portray her "belonging" in that environment, and may include hiding certain items so that she and the said gentleman can look for that item together, initiating a pseudo-bonding experience that may allow her more time to convince him into making decisions he will likely regret in the morning. Accompanying this act may include leaving an item in the room after departing in the morning or early afternoon, such as a key or cell phone, forcing the man to let the woman back into his quarters. She usually does this in desperation of initiating some sort of long term relationship now that she has her "foot in the door" so to speak.
