How you know you're too tired...

...to make coffee:

You start the coffee maker without adding any water to it. It then takes at least 20 minutes until you wonder why there's no coffee.

Then you add water, but not enough, which you don't discover until you see that what was supposed to be 4+ cups is only about 3.

I need to go back to bed and have a do-over.

I've done that but it was putting in the water with no coffee. A fresh pot of hot water was never so disappointing.

That would be awful too, fuss.

Turns out I did put in enough water, but somehow the coffeemaker turned itself off with about a cup and a half of water left in it. I just re-started it. But it did not occur to me that the coffee in the pot would be cold because the warmer plate hadn't been on.

at least the 'not enough water' coffee is strong and highly caffinated?

This is an excellent point!

lol. I have put the coffee in the mug instead of the French press more than once. I don't even drink coffee daily.

Yes, that is the silver lining!
