Using sheer determination and a couple of shovels, I dug up this stump from the area I plan(ned) to use as a garden. I didn’t need to dig it up, but it suited me better to have a more uniform garden space. I also enjoyed the challenge of it and having an excuse to play in the dirt.

This reminds of a Czech movie, Little Otik (Otesánek), I saw a few years ago where a woman wants to have a baby but can’t, so her husband carves one out of a stump or something. It comes alive and starts eating people. It’s a great movie. Scary. Creepy. Recommended.
Little Otik is great! I went through a Svankmajer thing where I wanted to see all of his stuff and Movie Madness hooked me up rightly. They’ve got a collection of Svankmajer film shorts that’s really nice, odd viewing.
