Can using Chronic impair you sense of time?

Haha..
I'm using Chronic to parse the time users add in the Calendar. Where the code works and implements the right time, the end result is that, IF a user adds a time, then it has no date, and because it has no date, it will not show in results. Any ideas?
def set_dates
unless self.natural_date.blank? || Chronic.parse(self.natural_date).blank?
# check if we are dealing with a date or a date + time
if time_provided?(self.natural_date)
self.date = nil
self.time = Chronic.parse(self.natural_date)
else
self.date = Chronic.parse(self.natural_date).to_date
self.time = nil
end
end
unless self.natural_end_date.blank? || Chronic.parse(self.natural_end_date).blank?
# check if we are dealing with a date or a date + time
if time_provided?(self.natural_end_date)
self.end_date = nil
self.end_time = Chronic.parse(self.natural_end_date)
else
self.end_date = Chronic.parse(self.natural_end_date).to_date
self.end_time = nil
end
end
end
