On the contrary, I’ll just have to wait less than a month.  
Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute:Second is so much more logical than whatever forwards-and-backwards arrangment happens to be the convention in the region you happen to live in.

Actually, my unborn son’s due date is 06-06-06. However, we wont be reaching this date because of an earlier controlled c-section.  
But I still imagine there are going to be a lot of kids born on this day.

(I wonder how many will be named Damien?)
