SHORT PUMP You Up – Candid Carrie

This is Candid Carrie’s Day…Hans and Franz picked her because her blog was looking a bit girly and needed to be SHORT PUMPED UP a bit. Below is Carrie’s Fantasy Photo…Doesn’t she look fabulous?

I know, people say she has a big head, but she really is a down to earth kind of girl!

Then she had to answer a few questions and just like Carrie would she took over ignored me agreed and this ended up being the interview…you’ll see why I love her so much…

Linda:  Candid Carrie…I am here to SHORT PUMP YOU UP!

Carrie: Well, hello Linda!  You are so much thinner in person.

Thank you so much for this great opportunity.  I am glad that you are going to PUMP me up!  But let’s talk about you.  Your post yesterday (Suave-a-licious Post-Oscar Post) had so much useful information.  First of all, how cute is Tina Fey?  And second, where did Sarah Jessica Parker get those boobs because they look just like mine.

Enough about you, my turn.

Why do I blog? First of all, I can’t even answer that question without thanking Tess at Outnumbered Two to One.  It was all her idea.  I’ve been a writer at least twenty years, but before blogging I had no place for it.  I wrote long letters to my friends’ kids for their birthdays, I rewrote songs to match something I needed, a couple of dirty poems, and here I am today.

I know you asked me if blogging was a food what food would it be but I don’t want to answer that because obviously it would be dark chocolate.  Instead let’s do this one: If my blog was a crayon, what color would it be? I’ve given this a lot of thought, Short Pump and I would have to say my blog is Midnight Blue.  Definitely Midnight Blue.  First of all, that is my favorite color and the password to just about all of my accounts.  Ooops, don’t put that in there.  The only way to make Midnight Blue a better color would be to add a little bit of glitter to it.  Like a Metallic Midnight Blue.  Yeah, that’s it.  Where was I going with this? Wait, alright.  Metallic Midnight Blue is more exciting than Navy Blue, yet slenderizing enough for everyday.

What’s the real story behind you and American Idol’s Danny Gokey? Well, Danny and I go way back.  We live about sixty miles from each other and even though we’ve never met I am confident that he would really like me.

Carrie, we are running out of time here.  Could you pick twenty of your favorite posts to give us an indication of who you are? Short Pump, I won’t use up that many giga-bytes over here but I will give you three.

My absolute favorite is The Best April Fool’s Joke Ever.

The perfect Sunday Morning with Stop, Drop, and Roll Coffee Cake.

And an example of my unhealthy respect for authority shines in Ten Hail Marys And An Our Father Later.

Linda: Thanks!  Maybe the next person I SHORT PUMP will answer the REAL questions, but I like yours too!  You’ve been a real sport, but I still would like to know why you are glaring at Simon when he obviously is one of your biggest fans…oh well, maybe he will comment and give us some insight!

Make sure you visit Candid Carrie on Fridays when she does her little Photo Phing and takes all kinds of liberties with the English alphabet.  It’s outrageously popular and the only place to be!
