Sounds like it's Blursday again...
Technically, I believe tomorrow is the 'x' variable as it is yet unknown. So today would be 'x-1', which therefore makes yesterday a 'y'... (as in, 'Y didn't I get more done yesterday?' or 'Y did I do that dumb thing?'). Today would also, then, be 'y+1' as the consequences of whatever you did or didn't do yesterday. Today being today going both ways, unless you are time-travelling to an alternate universe in between those days, x-1 = y + 1.
x - 1 + 1 = y + 1 + 1
x = y + 2
Tomorrow = yesterday + 2
See?
Nice closeup portrait!
Also, 'nope-inducing' is another great term.
