You want to talk about living in the moment? I can tell you about living in the moment...
Here's me (in my head): " Gee, this coffee at work is really bad, so I'm gonna put some Coffee Mate in my 14 oz cup of reflux-inducing work-provided coffee so as to minimize the acidic impact thereof. Hey! there's only one single-serving envelope of Coffee Mate left in the condiment drawer, and I think two would really do the job. Hey Jon, what do you say we open up a new box of single-serving envelopes from the stash in the condiment cupboard? Sounds great if you've got that kind of time, but jeez, what about the last jerk to get coffee? Why didn't they restock? Am I the only one who ever does this? Take it easy, dude; just open a new box, and dump it in the drawer. Okay, you're right. Maybe they didn't have any extra time either (right, they're sooooo busy!). What !?? Oh no! Now I've got the two single-serving envelopes of creamer that I wanted, but they're from two different production runs at the creamer factory! Okay, easy. Remain calm. Settle. You can easily just take two new packs from the drawer, and throw away the original single trouble maker. But dude, that is so not being a good steward of your resources! There are starving children in Africa, and all. Remember? Look, the thing I'm having trouble getting past is that I have no idea how the different creamer production lots might affect the taste of this cup of coffee. "
"Dude. Go for it."
