Corrected entry: When Stan is still at his trailer, and first calls his daughter's house, his ex-wife says that it's Saturday, and she is at soccer practice. After this point in the movie, Stan goes to LA, to Gabriel's house, and spends the night there (all in one day). The next morning he takes Ginger's car to see his daughter, who is at school. On a Sunday?

Correction: It's also worth noting that the daughter *was* at school, indicating a school day, so therefore we can deduce, as the correction states, that the ex-wife was indeed so out of it she didn't know what day of the week it was.
Correction: It's pretty apparent that his ex-wife is pretty medicated, probably outside the realm of what she actually needs. This, combined with the visible alcohol use, wouldn't make it out of the realm of possibility that the ex-wife was mistaken on what day it was, or where the daughter actually was. As we see, she is not the best parent.
