There are 365 days in a year. If we keep the standard 7 day week, that gives us 52 weeks, with a single day left over. That day can be New Years Day, and be outside the standard week. Call it a special day, make it a holiday, whatever. Leap years would have 2 special days. Put the second in the summer to balance the one in the winter.

That means every year is there same. Divide the year to into as many months as you want, as long as each one has a 'multiple of 7' days. January 1? Always a Sunday. April 3? Always Tuesday. Leap year day? It's on the calendar between Saturday and Sunday.

That'd be great for people whose birthdays and such fall on weekends, less so for the others.

That's what they get for choosing a bad birthday in the character creation menu.
