>>>>>Something about October is niggling at my memory, but I can't recall it.
It could be a calendar date, but I'm thinking it was an event.<<<<
WOW, that's really strange that you should say that today.
Just this morning, I said "October 7th" out loud to myself and had no idea why.
October 7, 2001 was the beginning of the Afghanistan invasion. Apparently they did something we didn't particularly like.

Memo to you and me:
No more food with garlic in it before bedtime.
