Introduction      Everyone would think that getting married is a pleasant experience. I mean, you are totally head-over-hills for this person, and lets face it, you have been waiting your entire life for this moment. Or, have you?      Marriage actually has nothing to do with the creative exercise I have chosen, but the title would lead you to believe that it is! WE’RE GETTING HITCHED!      We’re Getting Hitched! is the creative exercise I have chosen out of the infamous book CAFFEINE FOR THE CREATIVE MIND 250 EXERCISES TO WAKE UP YOUR BRAIN written by Stefan Mumaw and Wendy Lee Oldfield .      This exercise is about an actual HITCH .

Introduction      These days life seems to pass by in the blink of an eye. Most people are in a hurry to get to their next destination. That next destination maybe your kid's school, your school, work, grocery store, sports practice, the gym, conferences/events, and so much more. There is always somewhere else to go. This means that we humans spend a big portion of our time driving around in our cars which is considered an extension of our homes.      Being that we spend countless hours in our vehicles, we tend to decorate and change the designs to make ourselves feel more comfortable and at home.      The exercise that I have chosen is called Life in the Fast Lane! out of the book CAFFEINE FOR THE CREATIVE MINE 250 EXERCISES TO WAKE UP YOUR BRAIN written by Stefan Mumaw and Wendy Lee Oldfield .      Now, I know what some of you may be thinking. You may even be singing: “Life in the fast lane, surely make you lose your mind, life in the fast lane yeah” a great classic by
