What came before

Before I started this tumblr blog, even before I started grinermoon.net, I started wrensgordianknot.blogspot.com to help me work my way through a knotty place in my life.  I put my posts up in the hopes that someone would get some benefit from them, I’m hoping that remains true.  Take a look a round, see if there is anything you can use, and have a most excellent day.

Been chasing rain all weekend. Travis and I have been talking over the future of the podcast... it's a bleak outlook right now. We have so much else going on, including his woodworking. If you're interested check it out at grinermoon.net, we'd appreciate the visit.

Not unexpected

I don’t think this is unexpected, we are putting VennTriangle on hold indefinitely.  We got a little overambitious with having a home to build, a garden to care for, pets, friends that need help, work, and certain other obligations.  I apologize for letting you down, I hope we can come back stronger later, or metamorphose into something more sustainable.

For Goodness Sake

We tried to record, we really did, but rain on a tin roof is rather loud.  We apologize, we'll get this done...someday!

Update

We are supposed to record our first official podcast tonight when Travis gets home.  In the meantime, in case you want to get to know me a bit, you can check out my blog: http://wrensgordianknot.blogspot.com/ for yourself.  I am on a journey toward healing myself, I'm sharing that journey in case it helps anyone else.

MGACon

       Travis and I were busy with MGACon this past weekend.  I posted a couple of pictures here, I have a whole album at https://www.facebook.com/VennTriangle/ if you want to see more of what went on.

MGACon henna tattoo

[venntriangle-blog]

      This morning I opened my door to a wild Tufted Titmouse.  I

was so surprised to see her that I didn't think, I just stroked her

soft feathers while I talked to her.  After stroking her for a bit I

got out my camera so that I could record her presence.  I stroked

her again, then she flew over to my gardening table.  I walked away

from the whole thing feeling like a Disney Princess, and a dolt for

not having thought to use my video recorder the second I saw her.  

I hope that you are all having a magical day as well!

Middle Georgia Events

    If you are in middle Georgia, MGACon is happening this

weekend starting with the swap meet at the Anderson Conference

Center in Macon at 6 p.m.  They will have panels, games, exhibits,

and shopping for all your geek needs on Saturday, and Sunday.  Say

hello to the volunteers, see if you can spot Travis, and have a great

time!

      In case you don't like rubbing elbows with geeks, or you have

spare time, here are some other goings on this weekend:  The

Constant Wife is showing in downtown Macon from 2/18-2/26.

Peanuts is showing in Perry from 2/16-3/4, while you can go see

Saint Joan at the Douglass Theater in Macon on 2/19.  You could

drive over to Georgia College in Milledgeville to  watch students

perform Green Day's musical American Idiot on 2/21-2/25.  If you

are feeling musical you can see Justin Hayward, of the Moody

Blues, perform at the Grand Opera House in Macon on 2/19.  If

none of that appeals to you, look at the Out and About calendar of

events in The Telegraph,  there should be something for nearly

everyone.  

      Have a great weekend, be a safe driver, and do something

worth talking about!  We'll be back at recording as soon as we get

some of our personal calendar cleared out.

We hope your Valentine’s Day was good!  We’re looking forward to putting out our first full podcast as soon as we finish up with MGACon

The Venn Triangle Podcast

      The Venn Triangle is a podcast for those who enjoy current

events, esoteric subjects, having stories read to them, game and

movie recommendations, and more.  We will pick three things to

talk about each week in whatever order we feel is right, then

present them to you, the listener, for your podcasting enjoyment.

We are a self produced podcast, though our music comes from

Skylyn Bilen, a new composer.  He's working on a webpage now.

      Travis Griner and Serenity Wilson will be your hosts for the

Venn Triangle podcast.  If you would like to get to know them a

little better, keep reading or you can always come back later to

read about them.  If not, watch for our podcast to come out on

a Saturday in February (see subsequent posts about technical

difficulties).  The main subject our first podcast is rune stones.

      Travis G. was born in Jacksonville, FL.  He lived in North

Carolina on a farm for 11 years, then moved to Georgia where he

has remained.  He is a gamer, an ink monkey, a creative, a director

of gaming at MGACon, a father, and a former pagan, among other

things.  

      Serenity W. was born in West Chester, PA.  She has lived

in Pennsylvania, South Carolina, North Carolina, Maryland,

Delaware, Texas, Utah, Tennessee, California, Mississippi, Florida,

and Georgia, mostly not in that order.  She is a creative, a

struggling (but not starving!) writer, a former assistant director at

MGACon, a mother, a former pagan, a theosophical explorer, and

many other things.  

      Travis and Serenity have been together for nearly a decade,

marrying not so very long ago.  They bring to the podcast a wealth

of experience, knowledge, a love of learning, and a pair of open

minds.  Serenity has a blog if you would like to get to know more

about her, as well as Pinterest.  You can find Travis on

Facebook, Pinterest, and Tumblr.
