Do You Drink Coffee at Night?

I know many people can't drink coffee at night or else they are awake all night long. I am not one of those people. I can drink a cup of coffee at night and then go to bed and fall right asleep. I love coffee and will drink it whenever the mood hits.
Tonight I was in the mood for a fresh cup of coffee. So I made a pot. My hubby even had a cup. It was refreshing after making a run to the local store for a loaf of bread. It was still raining lightly and I got a little bit chilled. So the cup of coffee was just the thing to break the chill.
Do you ever drink coffee in the late afternoon or evening? I'm hoping that I will find a few more who indulge in my crazy habit.

@LindaOHio Me either but it doesn't keep me awake anyway, just adds a little zip to my step. Ha.

At all times, even at nights. It does make me sleep like a baby!

@jvicentevalera I just had a cup there in the late afternoon. I"m exhausted and just thinking about taking a nap which I will probably do.

@kareng I doesn't bother me either. If the weather wasn't this hot right now, I would be drinking a cup of coffee now, but I'd rather take it when it gets darker and a little chillier!

If I am really in the mood, I might drink like half a cup or so, but drinking more than that, would probably really effect my sleep, and it isn't just coffee..drinking ice tea, soda or anything like that can be a problem.

@snowy22315 True, I must have been almost asleep. Sprite with no caffeine is my favorite. I drink non-caffeinated soft drinks mainly.

@CookieMonster46 That's all we can do; try to curb it.

It is time for my final cup of coffee. I drink two in the morning, and one around this time. When I do that I do not wake up with a headache.

No, I prefer my caffeine cold and fizzy. Yes, I do drink soda pop at anytime of the day or night,.

I try not to have coffee/tea/caffeine after 11:00am (or sooner). I can always get to sleep at night no problem, but if I am caffeined up, I will wake up around 2-3am and can't get back to sleep. I have friends who say they can drink coffee at anytime and it doesn't affect them.

@kareng Everyone is different so it affects them different. But being truly tired does help with sleep.

I hear you. We used to have to drink very strong coffee at one of my jobs to stay warm during hearings where I had to organize files and take notes. It was always freezing in there. It was boring stuff also dealing with pipeline right aways, so the coffee also kept us awake. lol
