I visualize not only discrete amounts of time like months or days as some sort of circular (or rather elliptic) strip but also pretty much any kind of sequence of contiguous numbers.
I almost can't believe it's really that uncommon because - from my point of view - it just makes sense. How would you imagine time or numbers if not in a visual, spatial manner?
I suppose for humans arranging objects that come after another in a spatial order that expresses this relation comes pretty naturally, given that we're very visual creatures and we're used to the 3 dimensions of space we perceive.
