So, I tried out my coffee maker tonight. I'm not enough of a coffee expert to know if all the rave reviews are accurate, but the coffee was pretty good. You start by pressing a super-strong amount of coffee, and then top it off with water. I think I put in too much water, because when I sampled the essence-o'-coffee it was good, but the final cup was weak-tasting.

Anyway. I had the coffee after 9:00 p.m., which I realize is somewhat close to my bedtime. However, I also know that a cup of coffee doesn't have a huge effect on my system (unlike espresso, a fact of which I have very recently reminded myself, and with which I provided ratzeo much amusement). I figured that one cup would be okay.

Except -

I knew, at the time, that this particular coffee maker uses quite a bit of coffee - about twice the grounds other coffee makers use, in fact. For some reason, I didn't make the connection that this would result in me getting about two cups' worth of caffeine.

... Whoops.
