Minutiae

At some point, I will learn to sip coffee instead of drinking it as quickly as I would water.

For that matter, at some point I will learn to drink water slowly instead of emptying the glass as quickly as possible so I can get back to whatever I was doing before deciding to drink some water.

I've mastered the art of sipping alcoholic beverages, with the aid of some operant conditioning. (I have a very low alcohol tolerance and generally start buzzing after consuming less than 1/10 a standard serving of booze. Forgetting to sip slowly leads to much unpleasantness.)

I won't drink coffee if it's hot enough to burn my mouth, so I don't get the temperature-based encouragement for small sips. Therefore I usually drain my mug quickly, then five minutes later look around and wonder where my coffee went.
