Good anecdote--bad reality.

The trouble with getting introspective when you're pregnant is that you never know who you might run into.

You have to constantly arrange yourself around them, and that can take up a lot of energy. I mean, you don't go, "Why don't you cook dinner tonight, dear, for a change, instead of writing a great song?" I loved what [Paul Simon] did with words. But I wanted to do some more of that, too.

I don't know about understood. I think that unless you are forced to understand - unless it is an issue of yours - you wouldn't bother to.
