  • Here, let me help. Friday is usually Friday, except when you're using the word to mean any day except Sunday, except when you're using it to mean any day except Saturday. Sometimes it's Saturday, sometimes it's not. Sometimes it's Sunday, sometimes it's not. Either way, it's Friday all week, except sometimes on Saturday and/or Sunday.

    Better?
