It seems to me that October really just flew by. I can't explain it, but it's almost like I wasn't even there? Obviously, that isn't possible, so explaining it is beyond me. And now we're into November. The year is almost over... Hard to believe how fast it has come and gone.

If you were at the Halloween party, and I didn't get the chance to say hello, I hope you had a good time. I saw plenty of you there, obviously, but I can't remember if I stopped to talk to everyone. I enjoyed myself, even though the party was lacking in spirits. Shizuka, you neglected to mention this when you invited me. If I had known, I probably wouldn't have come. I suppose, considering you aren't old enough to buy liquor, I shouldn't be surprised.

I suppose I don't have anything eventful in my life to really talk about. I think everyone has heard of my impending nuptials, so I don't see the point in re-announcing it. At this point, I'm trying to decide if I want a 'Bachelor' party. I've heard that Nyota's friends will be throwing her a Bachelorette party, so it would probably be wrong of me not to have one.

Birkin, I don't suppose you're interested? Perhaps the two of us could celebrate alone. I seem to be severely lacking in male friends.

As for the wedding arrangements, I have been as involved as Nyota wants me to be. My only concern is the cake, which we still have to order. Ny, I've schedule a time to visit with a bakery and try a tasting. I've also arranged with a realtor to see some homes. We're running out of time, I'm afraid... This month has simply been flying by too quickly.



I've felt ... oddly as of late.

Perhaps I'm just nervous about the prospect of being married. Confined. Trapped Which is ridiculous. Even though I never thought that I would ever get engaged, or that I would ever be married. But now, that it's so close ...

It's impossible to explain.

I feel as if I recently found something, but right as I began to grasp it again, it was snatched away. It's strange. My head keeps grasping at straws that don't make any sense. I keep having these thoughts, these ... pictures ... that I've never seen. But they seem so familiar...

I don't have time to fall into another slump. I'm getting married. I should be happy.

So why do I feel like something terrible is happening?





Are you able to come over tonight? I understand if you are busy, but...

I want to see you.



In unrelated news, I hear that someone has staged a coup against me and my ridiculous Monopoly skills. I won't stand for it, and I hope you realize that no matter how hard you try, you can't win. I will destroy you, and give you a new definition for the word 'Monopoly'.

In other words, it's on, Gladys. You can't win. Just try.
