The week is the official calendar of the Neptune. There are 19 days in each fortnight, which contains three weeks, two having six and the other seven days. There are 13 of these fortnights (247 days) in a month, and 363 months (89,661 days) in a year. However, as the Neptune's year is actually only 89660.3605 Neptunial days long, the last day (leap day) is excluded whenever the day count becomes at least half a day more than this number times the year count; this phenomenon is dubbed the Missing Bunday. One Neptunial day is 0.6713 Earthen days, making a year about 245.5 Earthen years.

The epoch of the Neptunial calendar is the Earthen Official T Day, 2008. In the Neptunial calendar, this is 000/000/000 (in YYY/MMM/DDD format) as Neptunial date numbering starts at zero. Events that are commonly celebrated annually on Earth are monthly on the Neptune.

An example translation of a date to the Neptunial calendar is 2009/04/02 16:20:13 which becomes 000/002/247 32:50:74 - hours, minutes and seconds are all decimal and range from 00 to 99.

Days of the week

Missing Monday

Missing Monday only occurs in every third week, hence the name. It is therefore rarely Missing Monday, so nothing important happens on these days. Thankfully for us lazy sods, but bad for business, it is not a day of rest, which is the main reason for almost every missed deadline evar.

Happy Tuesday

Happy Tuesday is happy. All good things are said to have first happened on a Happy Tuesday. For example, xm3smps Anniversary Edition was released on April Fools' Day, 2008, which was a Happy Tuesday.

Fanficnesday

Fanficnesday is the second most fun day (next to Caturday) and the second happiest day (next to Happy Tuesday) of the week, and as such many perceive it to be the best day of the week. Every Fanficnesday, the Kumizonian ritual of fanfiction-reading is practiced all across the Neptune.

Fursday

Fursday is the evil day of the week. Originally Thursday, yet still evil, it was invaded by furries and stolen from Satan, who now resides in the past and can only be visited using the TARDIS or, if it even exists, another time-traveling device. Furries are actually not evil themselves, and blame their unfortunate leopard failure at being pushed into the week's evil day for their fursecution.

Firry Friday

Firry Friday was originally Furry Friday. The aforementioned furries were driven out of Firry Friday by their arch-nemeses, the firries. This epic event occured on the Last Thursday.

Caturday

Caturday is the official day of rest and worship to Ceiling Cat and has been so ever since Genesis. Caturdays typically consist of creating, posting and reposting image macros of cats. Non-believers are commonly known to place the emphasis in the middle, instead posting ugly pictures of turds.

Bunday

Bunday is the day of bunnies. As it is less famous than Caturday, it is the second day of rest and used as a wind-down period for calmly posting bunnies after the wild, epic Caturday threads.
