You&#8217;ve got to be willing, though, to come to New York in January to present your work at the show, but who doesn&#8217;t love New York in January? Make those reservations now.<\/p>\n<p>If you <i>do<\/i> come to New York for the Film Festival, though, I won&#8217;t be able to congratulate you in person. Because of a scheduling snafu, it turns out that I\u2019m going to be in England the week of the Festival, making it the first time I&#8217;ll miss a WYSIWYG event since we started putting on these monthly gigs way back in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wysiwygtalentshow.org\/shows\/021104\/index.html\" >February 2004<\/a>. (Yes, we do have an anniversary coming up, thank you.) I\u2019m sad about that, but pretty psyched to get back to England for the first time in four years or so.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to visit <a href=\"http:\/\/trashaddict.blogspot.com\/\" >some<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.plasticbag.org\/\" >pals<\/a>, enjoy the balmy January weather, and check out the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rdg.ac.uk\/typography\/\"  title=\"MA Typeface Design at the University of Reading Department of Typography and Graphic Communication\">Typeface Design<\/a> program at the University of Reading.

Are you jealous yet?<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there&#8217;s a lot of work I have to catch up on before any of that happens. Aside from all the other plates I\u2019m spinning at the moment, I have to take care of the one big WYSIWYG project I haven&#8217;t handled yet: writing something to actually perform at <a href=\"https:\/\/ultrasparky.org\/archives\/2005\/11\/thanks_for_the.html\" title=\"I\u2019m With the Band\">tomorrow night&#8217;s show<\/a>.
