Deep Pencil - the musings of Morgan Bell

 
If a tree falls in the woods and nobody is there to hear it did it really make a sound? If i post a blog and nobody reads it was there really any point? You have entered the random thinking space of Morgan Bell . . . These are my musings . . . things about my life written off the top of my head . . . written in an informal disjointed style almost completely devoid of punctuation, this is where i flesh out writing ideas, discuss my life, and generally be self indulgent . . . it is also the bargain bin for articles which do not fit in with the film or arts themes of my other blogs . . . so have a wander around my mind, have a laugh, have a think, be nice, and humour me!

Happy Birthday: Four bottles of wine and a wig

August 31st 2009 08:14
This year, for my birthday (which is actually today), I found myself sitting at Newcastle 24 hour McDonalds mid Sunday morning.

The maccas is a free wifi hot-spot so I engaged in some idle Twittering and Facebooking from my mobile phone while I waited for my friend to wake up and retrieve me.

The break-down of my delirious announcements went something like this:

Morgan Bell @ king street maccas looking trashy

Morgan Bell alcoholic tip of the day: to avoid hangovers just stay up

Morgan Bell i couldnt sleep so i walked to king st maccas, the bag i am carrying contains 4 bottles of wine and a wig haha

Morgan Bell so this weird cat comes up to me for a pat and proceeds to try and eat the button off my top . . . Only in Maryville

Morgan Bell fat girls with boyfriends have so much attitude, take away the boyfriend and all thats left is a fat girl

Morgan Bell its amazing how many people get up early to read the paper at maccas

Its like im a philosopher. I feel excited for anyone on my friends lists who was exposed to those pearls of wisdom.

I turned 28 today, and its great to see, from tracking my cyber idiocy, that I have not really matured in any way.

Four bottles of wine and a wig.

My friend did pick me up in the end.

Very happy birthday to you, Morgan. Buat.....twitter, facebook and maccas? Is that the modern woman's birthday party

I forgot - you did have the wine

Many happy returns.

Do fat girls still have an attitude if their boyfriend is also fat?
I used to get annoyed when I saw a fat girl with an attractive boyfriend, like how the hell did she get him?! Ha! How shallow is that? Not to mention extremely discriminatory. I did say used to right?

Happy Birthday.

hi Janet,

its just my usual problem of being the last person awake paired with feeling like going for long walks when drunk

i had a good night out at the Gateway Hotel in Newcastle, and i assure you the wine was all unopened, the spare bottles from the night before

hi Ruby,

there were so many fat girls dragging their boyfriends around, it seems early morning maccas is some hot-spot for couply activity, fat girls can show off by displaying their boyfriends in a place where they can also purchase an afforable meal. although some also enjoy proving their wealth by going to McCafe haha

its this whole hetero culture i was not aware of

i seriously think they are adopting behaviour straight from the smiling maccas ads

the things you can see with wine goggles on

Happy Birthday!

Sounds like my kinda birthday. The wine, anyway, not so much the wig. And maturity is highly overrated you know. As are fat girls with boyfriends.

I think that often when`fat girls' have boyfriends who more closely fit the typical idea of `attractive' its actually a case that the `attitude' the girls already have is one of the things the boys find most attractive in the first place, not the other way around. (Plus the boobs and general cuddliness).

Its just conjecture though; maybe you could do a survey?

Crazy girl!! Hope your day kicked ass!!

You should have ordered one of their Maccas Ice Cream cakes and made the staff sing you happy birthday.

And thinking of Maccas - I want to try their new beef burger - apparently it's real beef

You got my FB and text messages so I am NOT singing again.

Hugs

You were born with a spring.

In summary, boing, boing, boing.

Oh yeah, I meant to also say: Happy Birthday!

hi Siml,

its great when others encourage and support me in my trashy endeavours, theres probably some fat girls with boyfriends scowling at me right now!



hi Earl,

i like your hypothesis, perhaps the chicken really did come before the egg?

i just saw a lot of prancing that morning, a lot of "ownership" looks and weird senses of achievement, a lot of "come on Johnno, we are going to McDonalds to spend some quality time IN PUBLIC" lol




hi Jason,

i did appreciate my sms and my Facebook wall message, i felt very loved

whenever i went up to order something (i needed multiple servings of ice cold fluids) i left my bag of wine and wig on the booth seat to mind my place, it was too heavy to haul to the counter . . . i imagine i looked very strange indeed, glancing back at my date the plastic bag, to make sure noone tried to steal him




hi Norm,

yeah im a seasonal girl, born on the last day of winter, as i age the southern hemisphere kicks into regeneration . . . im kind of like Jesus

Morgan, they say a well adjusted woman is one who not only knows what she wants for her birthday, but even knows what she's going to exchange it for.

Wouldn't swap you for anything - as for fat girls . . .

Happy birthday

hi MNG,

Wouldn't swap you for anything

awwww you really are a nice guy!

you know i have never exchanged a present, seems kind of wrong, ungrateful or something, i like the memories of all my little nick knacks even if they arent functional

Morgan, sorry for the delay... Hopefully, you'd an unforgettable B'day!

PS: By the way, have you finished all the four bottles of wine? If you haven't, then I would be pleased to help you here!
