I actually thought about the mother Rose being crowded out and stifled by her babies while I was hoeing them out.
It's amazing, really, how I can ferret out things to feel guilty about.
Once, when I was younger and far more romantic about Life, I was driving down the road and noticed an ant crawling (hopelessly, frantically) across my windshield, and I kept driving, feeling like a sadist, and then (with some irritation, but nevertheless) pulled over and turned around, planning to take my ant back to the driveway!
