Pictureless!

2012-04-25T17:58:00.000-05:00

*Gasps* Pictureless, a word I never thought I would have to say! I haven't taken a picture with a normal(aka not my phones) camera in months. But! Thankfully for you, my phone takes killer pictures :D A frosty night back in February. I was going to make this a wordless Wednesday, but if you think about it, around here the last(2 or 3) dozen Wednesdays have been wordless. Indeed,

"Tra-la-la-la-la. Spring is in the air, and I am a flower, with nothing interesting to say" Points to anyone who can tell me where that's from. Soooo, I'm on Pinterest now! I just joined for kicks and giggles. But I'm really starting to like it :) Collin Mizell / Pinterest I'd love for you to stop by and see my latest pins, and also see your amazing pins! Have to say my favorite thing to

There is a light at the end of this tunnel!

2012-02-14T21:45:00.001-06:00

"This tunnel" being the long dark gloomy non posting spree I appear to be on! :/ There is still hope! I've been working full time, I know plenty of people who work much more than myself, and post much more to boot. But I'm still getting the hang of micro time management, lol. The hope I speak of is a new laptop! I'm saving up for a new Macbook. :) can't pick between the 13 inch air, or the 13

Hello hello! First off, MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!! I've been meaning to post on here. But my life, has been a little on the busy side. I'm loving it though! Work is going great, Nordstrom is a fun place to work for. I'm saving up and looking for a car to buy. That's been interesting, so many junkie cars out there. Hopefully I'll be able to buy the perfect car soon. I'm posting on the go right

Fall Fashion, His and Her's!

2011-09-27T12:57:00.000-05:00

I haven't had nearly enough time to study this seasons new trends, or colors, or pretty much anything other than Coffee. But I thought I'd post something like a Winter Shopping Guide. When your looking to try new styles, or wanting to know whats popular in any given season, watching what the Department and Mall stores put out can only get you so far. You need to be aware of 1) your own personal

Well Hi There!

2011-09-25T12:41:00.000-05:00

Hellooooo? *knocks on door frame* It's been a while since I've stopped by here! Here's what I've been up to these last few weeks. Summer ended well for me, with a trip to Cali, like I've already said in recent posts. The main reason I've been so absent of late is..... I got a new job! At Nordstrom, in the In House coffee shop! I started three weeks ago, since then I haven't had much spare time

Colony Bay's, Courage New Hampshire.

2011-09-03T15:31:00.002-05:00

A new Historical Film has been brought to my attention! It's called Courage, New Hampshire. I don't know if I've told you guys, but I am a huge fan of Historical movies. The classics like Pride & Prejudice, anything the BBC does, Sense and Sensibility are never to far away from my DVD player. When I got an email from the film company, Colony Bay, that's producing Courage, I Eeeped! (<-- true

Day Eight: The beach at Avila.

2011-08-24T15:31:00.002-05:00

Yesterday, we went to the beach in a town called Avila. It was soo pretty! The town, and the beach itself. The water was still cold, but not as bad as the last beach we went to in Morro Bay. There was a warm breeze and the sand was nice and fluffy! lol While we were laying out getting some sun, we heard something getting in to our lunch bags, I look up to see a seagull flying off with

Day Six & Seven: The Brew and the Bay.

2011-08-22T21:59:00.003-05:00

I missed a day! I'm a faaaaailuuuuure... Oh well! Sunday we took a tour of a local Beer Brewery called Firestone Walker, not all together my thing. But it was fun to see all the huge equipment. Later on I got a glass of the stuff, YUM! Very good. Even better knowing exactly where it came from and how it was made! I got a gray long sleeve shirt with this logo on it. Me like. That was

Day Five: Car show.

2011-08-20T23:52:00.000-05:00

Car show! That's right. Awesomeness in a parking lot. Or in this case in a beautiful tree covered park..... I love California. It's tha van of love maaaaaannnn. A proper Calli landmark. It was a classic car show. Had to be 30 years or older I'm pretty sure. Neat old specialty car. AHHH............ ghaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. mmwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. *Passes out and flops on floor*

Day Four: The Beach!

2011-08-20T00:39:00.002-05:00

Today was a full day. Started out with going hiking again, at 7 in the morning! It's the time of day that's coolest, the hike was much more enjoyable with the weather in the mid 60's. Compared with the 85 it was last time we went up. the name of the mountain is Cerro Alto. It's beautiful hike! I'll save you the trip and show you what it looks like at the top. <iframe width="420" height="345" src

Day Three: swimming.

2011-08-19T00:39:00.001-05:00

Today was nice and slow. We went swimming, but other than that we stayed home and did things around the house. Tomorrow though, that will be a full day. Ashley and I are going on another five mile hike! At six in the morning o.O its when its coolest outside, and will make it easy to reach the top. After that its off to the beach!! Then shopping! Should be a good time. Now for todays pictures.

Day two: The Hike.

2011-08-18T00:16:00.000-05:00

Today we went hiking, up a right proper mountain! The very tippy top was marked Two Thousand feet tall. We stopped right before the top. I.was.pooped. Going up was great, a long way but fun, It's going down that gave me a swift kick in the rear, literally. Tomorrow I'm going to be sore in places i forgot I had. It took about three and a half hours to go from top to bottom. The

Ten day posting spree!

2011-08-14T23:59:00.004-05:00

Helloooo! I've messed you blogging world! I've been severely slacking here on Collinmizell.com. That's partly because I've been making three other websites for my Employers :) That's been fun and a enjoyable. Can you believe that summer is almost over? Oh, you can.. I see. Same here. Feels like its been summer for years. For me summer is going out with a bang. Or a boom... I guess it's more of

Summer Time, in pictures.

2011-07-28T14:23:00.003-05:00

100+. That's the temperature it's been for about 25 days straight. Of course it get's cooler at night, it get's all the way down to 80! :-p Don't worry Texas, I still love you. Even though I am leaving you in a few weeks to get some relief from your extremely dry, parched, prickle brown craziness. That's right, I'm leaving you for California. Cali can give me temperatures in mid 50's, and highs

Where i've been. New York to LA.

2011-07-18T14:08:00.000-05:00

I've been wanting to do this for so long! Here i've thrown together a map of all the places I've been across the US. Literally from New York to LA. I've been blessed to travel as much as I have, but i'm looking forward to going even more places. I've put links throughout the map, of blog posts I've done about my journeys. Even a few pictures to keep it interesting, er, than it already is.

May I recommend?

It's not very often I come across guy bloggers. But when I do, I've gotta tell you about them! Got two I'm going to share with you today. Número Uno! Noah's Reads: Books I recommend. He reviews books, does exclusive interviews with the Authors, and blogs about his everyday life. Although it's mostly book related posts. I've found quite a lot of interesting books by thumbing through his

2011-07-11T11:07:00.001-05:00

The band is Reliant K. One of the best bands out there. The song is "Getting

Latest Obsession... morphing.

2011-07-08T13:24:00.001-05:00

Over the last weekend, while I was out and about celebrating the 4th. I ran across something very odd, so odd in fact, it was wonderful. What I saw was a man, covered in heat to toe in a seamless red suit. No face, no skin showing at all. Just a red figure walking around. I don't know why I was surprised to hear it talk, but I was nonetheless. I expected it to be like a member of the Blue Man

Which I shall share with you now. A few of the pictures, when i went to take them, the camera didn't focus fast enough, so it turned out fuzzy, which made something kinda like this!

Yep! It was a rather last minute thing, so I didn't have time to talk about it on here before hand. But I spent last weekend in Joplin MO! Me and my little sister caught a ride up with some friends to go to one of my blogging friends Graduation party. Some of you may follow her blog, it's Contentedseamstress.blogspot.com..
