"Hiddenday"
It would be a day locked away from everyone's consciousness until the day's arrival. You'd be expecting your normal 7 day week, and go to bed Sunday night. Then the day after Sunday you'd wake will full knowledge of Hiddenday and everything you've ever done on prior Hiddendays. You'd already have a plan and knowledge if you were choosing to go to work to earn extra money, if you'd be staying home resting just a bit more, or going out to spend time with friends or family. You'd go to sleep on Hiddenday night knowing you'd forget the specific details of what you did that day ( but that you'd have that knowledge back next Hiddenday in 7 days). You'd wake up Monday morning remembering yesterday was Sunday, but you'd have any knowledge you accumulated the hidden day prior. If you worked and are paid hourly, you'd see an extra 8 hours of pay on your payslip, and no one would ever question why there were more hours. You'd carry the same rested feeling you had going to sleep on Hiddenday night but not know exactly why. Your family would tell you how much they loved spending time with you this week, and you'd feel the same, but you couldn't put your finger on exactly which day that happened.
We'd all go to work on Monday thinking how wonderful it would be if there was a 8th day.
So February 29!
If we honored cyclical calendar - lunar calendar - rather than the antichrist calendar created by the false prophets of the false church created by the Nicean Council that excluded fifteen books from our collection of myths to further service to Mammon, at the cost of schisming ourselves from within ourselves and with the global population, these things wouldn't be necessary. They were not the first to do this, however. gesture brutally at neolithic history.
