I shouldn't be alive....

...at the very least I shouldn't be awake. It's almost 3AM Hawai'i time, and I need to get poolside in five hours. And I've been drinking Blue Hawaiis and Big Wave lagers all night. I am now, officially, an alcoholic writer. Or is that an alcoholic Reiter?

However....

Had a great time at the closing/award ceremonies at the former Honolulu/now renamed Waikiki International Film Festival, got my award as an 'official finalist' (good for one free ride on the back of a sea turtle), and made some new pals in the process. Thanks guys (especially you crazy Aussies)...and most importantly: Caffeine and Vicodin!

(that phrase will be going viral as soon as it hits youtube, hopefully within a week, so remember you heard it here first)

And now the sad part: departing paradise tomorrow on a 7PM flight.
