The Captain has been making progress in the transition from general-use "sippy" cups (good in all kinds of gravities, including low Earth orbit) to the more specialized "normal" cups that we use here on the surface of the planet.  Progress is steady but occasional equipment malfunctions do occur.  Private Satchel could not be reached for comment on the issue.

An unrelated matter:  My Parents, Tam, The Captain, and I went to the Grand View (Chinese restaurant) to eat last night.  Hot and Sour Soup, Shrimp with Walnuts, Beef with Broccoli, and Mo Po Tofu (not sure if I spelled that correctly).  I like the atmosphere:  It's kinda like eating in an airy tropical cave...with windows.
