==Fictional calendars== In the works of [[J. R. R. Tolkien]], the [[Hobbits]] have developed the [[Shire Reckoning]]. According to Appendix D of ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'', this calendar has arranged the year in 12 months of 30 days each. The month the Hobbits call ''Solmath'' is rendered in the text as ''February'', and therefore the date February 30 exists in the narrative.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Tolkien|first1=J. R.

It is also the date of a fictional RAF raid on Germany in [[Len Deighton]]'s 1970 novel ''[[Bomber (novel)|Bomber]]''. ''December 32'' or ''32 December'' is the date of Hogswatchnight in ''[[Hogfather]]'' by Terry Pratchett. It has also been used as a [[December 32 (disambiguation)|title for various works]]. The children's book ''Please Try to Remember the First of Octember!'' by [[Dr. Seuss]] narrates many delightful things which are supposed to happen starting on the first day of the fictional month of Octember. In the episode "[[94 Meetings]]" of the sitcom [[Parks and Recreation]], [[Ron Swanson]] is forced to deal with 94 meetings in a single day because his assistant, [[April Ludgate]], scheduled them all for March 31st instead of the common fake date of February 31, mistakenly believing it was not a real date.
