4th cup of coffee

I am sitting at my favorite café, enjoying some alone time in the evening. It has been a long day and I am on my fourth cup of coffee to help me get through it.

I had my first cup this morning at 7am, knowing it was going to be a busy day. I had a quick breakfast with my coffee after sending my eldest child to school. After running some errands, my wife and I went out for lunch and had dim sum. The perfect drink to accompany dim sum? Coffee, of course. Before heading home, my wife wanted to redeem a coffee voucher at a chain coffee shop, so I got another cup.

Even though I have already had three cups of coffee, I still feel exhausted and need to take a quick nap in the afternoon. Now, I am having my fourth cup of coffee, hoping that I will be able to sleep as usual tonight.
