That shouldn't be a problem. I think you
just have to fast for 12 hours before the
test. I'm surprised they didn't schedule
you for a morning appointment so you could
just sleep through the fasting.

I didn't have to fast before mine. It
shouldn't matter what you had tonight
since it's so late in the day. Just don't
eat a lot of sugar before the test or else
you'll get a wrong reading.
If you're going to have GD, then even
watching what you eat before the test
won't make you pass.
