The hardest part was naming this thing. You see, titling anything has never been my strong point, which resulted in a lot of journals with "dark" and "edgy" names that I was terribly embarrassed of later down the line. Couldn't help it; I had to show absolutely everyone in the universe how goth I was.
...well, I'm still a goth. It's just now I don't think of myself as some sort of dark and misunderstood soul shunned by the masses of society. No, I realized I'm just a grumpy chick who doesn't like people very much and loves black ruffly things. And monsters. And video games. And tea.
So I decided to go for something clever and tea-related, playing off "Tea and Sympathy" and the fact that I am a surly little curmudgeon. Tea and Lack of Sympathy? No, a quick Google search brought up a Will and Grace episode, and I'd hate people to think i was referencing something I've never even watched. Damn.
Tea and Snarkiness didn't roll so well. Just a little bit clunky. Tea and Snarkery? Yes! That sounded good, and didn't seem to have any connotations I'd rather avoid.
At last, this thing got a name I won't hate later. Next time, I'll have something to write about that isn't nearly so boring.
