There's a point around 5pm when you have to make a big tea decision. Do you make another pot, with all the warm, slow comfort that will bring (and perk you up for more stuff), with the risk you may be kept awake at night?
On the other hand, do you see sense and have something without caffeine (not decaff, don't do it I say!), safe in the knowledge you'll drop off untroubled?
It's a toughie. Thankfully, this is something I don't have to worry. The addition of silly 'o' clock baby feeds to the routine means I can sleep at will (and even lose the fight to stay awake at finance meetings - they call for ridiculously strong coffee).
I normally choose a slightly weaker brew. Nice halfway (or at least it is if you use good tea, as you know!)
