Ruby date today? - unexpected behavior -


i'm new ruby , trying figure out why following doesn't work expected: 

2.2.1 :010 > user_date = date.today  => sun, 31 may 2015  2.2.1 :011 > user_date.today?  => false

i'm using rails console , commands executed 1 after other (with maybe second between executions). i'm sure there nuance i'm not understanding, shouldn't second command return true instead of false? if not, why? in advance!

edit #1 - additional information requested arup

 2.2.1 :013 > puts user_date.method(:today?).owner dateandtime::calculations  => nil

edit #2 - had hunch. i'm on eastern time , coming midnight when ran original issue. waited turn of midnight, , following works. 

2.2.1 :004 > user_date = date.today  => mon, 01 jun 2015  2.2.1 :005 > user_date.today?  => true

date.today belongs core ruby while today? belongs rails.

under hood, today? calls date.current(rails well) instead of date.today.

going bit further, find date.current takes current rails time zone account if 1 configured. should source of mismatch.
