On Dec 20th, Lucy went to MIT to relieve stress for the students during their exams. She and 4 other dogs hung out in the library and attracted quite a crowd. There were so many students who said "Oh, I miss my dog at home!" I think back to when I was in college, and it was the first time since I was born that I was living without a dog/cat/other pet. I was, of course, homesick, and I do think playing with a dog might have made me feel more connected with the "real world". I hope Lucy did that for the students. As for Lucy - she laid on her back getting belly rubs for nearly 2 hours, getting up only when she heard someone reach into the treat bowl.
I love love love this one! She's such a goofball!
