This weekend vs Next weekend

Possible Duplicate:
What day is next Tuesday?

Imagine that it's Monday, the 1st. The weekend would be the 7th & 8th. How do you refer properly to the coming weekend, "This weekend" or "Next weekend"?

I believe that using "next weekend" would refer to the 14th & 15th and "this weekend" would refer to this week's end. Technically the coming weekend (7th & 8th) would be the next weekend on the calendar.

So which is correct? I'm hoping for a definitive answer with backing since this is an argument over opinion.
