Whoo!
This Saturday I am waking up at the crack of dawn to take a train out to the Nara area and hike around THIS place, followed by some time at an onsen! It's going to cost me about 4,000 yen for the whole day, but a trip like this normally costs about 10,000, so I'm not going to let this opportunity pass by!
I'm so excited.

On Monday I have the Halloween party (I'm going as a penguin), and then it's goodbye October, hello November.
