on Wednesday, there is no next Sunday. There is only this Sunday and Sunday week or *next* Sunday, said with great emphasis and much hand waving and subsequent clarification. So if someone else used it, I would: one, I ask which one they meant and two, verify that they knew which it currently was.

I mean, I don't even know who you are, but really... you have to ask?
