The exercise:

Write about: the mutation.

Starting to get impatient. Don't know how much longer I'm supposed to wait before my vaccine superpowers kick in.

The exercise:

Write about: changing lanes.

The exercise:

I failed to mention it last week, but my second story over at my Creative Outlet has come to a conclusion. I'm quite happy with the way it turned out and I would appreciate you checking it out if you haven't already done so.

So as a delayed celebration, the starter for today is: spare change.

Mine:

Do you have a quarter to spare?
You could change my life, if you dare…

Nope, I need to make a phone call
And then pay for my parking stall.

Then perhaps I could have a dime?
I don’t think I have much more time…

Sorry, ten cents is far too much;
I just don’t have the Midas touch!

A nickel then, is all I ask;
Surely that’s not too great a task…

Again, I must tell you plainly:
That amount is just ungainly!

A penny then, I shan’t ask more;
I hear Death knocking at my door…

Hey, money doesn’t grow on trees;
Earn it yourself - get off your knees!

The exercise:

You'll have to pardon me for being too obvious, but today's starter is: change.

Mine:

Thank you America.

You had me worried there - Obama may have been the clear favorite going into today's voting but I still had my doubts.

After all, you did elect Bush to a second term. Although to be fair, I'm not sure I would have voted for Kerry either. Nader for president?

Either way America, you took a leap forward today. I'm looking forward to seeing what Obama can accomplish in the next four (hopefully eight) years.

Congratulations on electing your first black president and, more importantly, the better man in this contest.
