Getting back into my BC cycle...

Ok, so here's the situation:

I took my last active pill last Sunday (12-24)...I have had my period this past week, but things had pretty much stopped by this morning. I was due to start my next pill cycle yesterday (12-31), but I didn't realize I had finished my last pack until Friday; my health care office was closed early for the holiday weekend, and was closed today as well.

I am going to pick up my new pack tomorrow morning and will be two days behind on my pills-I generally take them around noon so I am only counting Sunday and Monday missed.

Should I take the Sunday and Monday pills Tuesday, then the Tuesday and Wednesday pills on Wednesday in order to 'catch up' (which is what I had planned), or just throw Sunday and Monday out and start on my Tuesday pill?

What would you guys do?
