I suppose it should be explained that Lydia's nickname is Judy. Because she IS a Judy. She's bossy, demanding, stubborn, and willful. But fiercely loyal and sometimes terribly sweet. It actually started out as Aunt Judy. If she was a person she would be your butch lesbian aunt who bosses you around, but only because she loves you and wants you to be happy.
Today though she was a Lydia. I felt so protective of her because she got shaky on the way to the vet. So uncharacteristically vulnerable. She also by the way let out a heinous, diarrhea-smelling fart on the way to drop the boys off and I jerked the wheel over to the side of the road and we all lept out so I could walk her on a strip of grass in case she had to go. She didn't, and just seemed excited to sniff around on some new grass. Ooh. Free walk, she seemed to say.
