Stupidest question ever.

Ok so laugh at me if you want, but if today is Tuesday, is Sunday 5 days away?

I get so confused at whether you're meant to count the day you're on now, or the day you're counting to.

Just want to write a facebook status saying I'm looking forward to my brother's wedding but I don't want to end up looking like a total twonk. Already got the date wrong once

I don't count the day we are on I'd say Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday so 5 days!

 

[moomin_troll]

Yeah you don't count the day you're on. So Sunday is 5 days away

 

[MrsPear]

Thank you! I'm an idiot.

 

[moomin_troll]

Hahah blame baby brain

 

[sue_88]

I always count from the day before so Sat would be 1 day to go....

Fri 2 days to go
Thurs 3
Wed 4
Tues 5!

Takes me ages but mostly get it right

I don't count the day we are on but I include the day we are counting to. So 5 days!

 

[supertabby]

OH always says i'm an idiot as i never count the day we are on

But then tomorrow would be 2 days away lol

 

[CRWx]

Yep, count from the next day too!

This week to me is the week we're on upto Sunday... Next week is the week after the one we're on... Had so many arguments about it! That just makes sense in my head!! xxx

 

[x__amour]

I never count the day we are on! I'd say Wednesday (1), Thursday (2), Friday (3), Saturday (4), Sunday (5).
