Is that why I'm Crabby?

The word Chele is Latin for the claw of a crab. So sayeth a google search. Is that why I'm crabby?

Chele is apparently also a village in the Himalayas.

The term chele is used in Nicaraguan slang to denote Europeans (in opposition to the North American-indicating gringo), and approximates to "foreigner".

And, of course, Ix Chel was the mayan goddess of the moon, childbirth, healing, art, creativity and weaving.

Can you tell I'm in avoidance mode???

Time to go feed The Boy, who has moved on to sweetpotatos now. (Very messy, staining, and stinky when viewed the second time around, if ya know what I mean...)
