When we say:
"One of these days..." We mean that we are going to do something some time in the future (for example, 'One of these days I'm going to be a star'). That is, we are referring to a group of days not including the current day. When we refer to a group outside of what we currently posess, we use the word "those."
But when we say:
"One of those days..." We mean that today is similar to a group of other days (for example, 'It's one of those days when you should have stayed in bed'). That is, we are referring to a group of which the current day in our possession is a part. But when we refer to a gorup that includes something we have, we use the word "these."
How does this happen? eek
