Just a little late night gripe session... FU teabaggers!

I have a word that I trademarked for landscape design on June 26th 2013, Status date July 8th.. It should be up for review NOW. It is not.... I guess the shutdown even effects bizness.

The word is Xeriverde. It has never been used in any language - I searched many databases.

For those of us in the Southwest US the word is instantly recognizable for what it is - 'dry' + 'green' = xeriscape. Those in wet areas will have no idea what I'm talking about.....

I am frustrated.......

My mascot isn't thrilled, but she'll get used to him. He's stayed here before.

My company can't submit anything to the govt now, so we are in standby mode. It's frustrating, but hang in there.

Out of the blue discovery during a class that needed a 'group project name' that I was assigned to. I pat myself on the back sometimes.


BUT..... I want it to be finalized!
