Monday, February 12 - This Day Does Not Exist

 Here's the thing about crossing the International Dateline.  You lose (or gain) a day.    Tonight, as we cross the International Dateline, we're setting our clocks ahead 24 hours.  You thought "springing forward" and "falling back" are rough?  How about 24 hours?

As I type this, it is Sunday night.  When I wake up tomorrow, it will be Tuesday morning.  

It will also be "Fat Tuesday".  Laissez les bon temps rouler!

  1. This hurts my brain. I'm reading this on Monday, but it's Tuesday where you are, and you completely missed a Monday. 🤪

  2. It just got weirder. It should be Monday but it is Tuesday, Feb. 13 here. But my heart monitor thinks it is Wed. Feb 14! And when I leave Tokyo on Feb 28 to fly home (a 23 hour trip), I get home on Feb 28!
