happy new dayweekmonthyeardecade

just realized this morning that tomorrow will be not only a new day and a new month and a new year but also a new decade - plus, if you are swahili, tomorrow will be a new week because in swahili the day begins at sunrise rather than ending at sunset, and so the day is offset by twelve hours from the arabic and hebrew calendars, so saturday is the first day of the week because it is the day which includes the first night of the week.
