In case anyone has replied to this and I haven't yet gotten it, I figured out what the issue was. The dayOfWeek() function needed a date and not an integer. I removed the day() function wrapping the dateFormat() function and all works as intended now.
Hopefully that's helpful to someone else.

I am trying to extract the day of week (both numeric and string) with the following lines: <cfscript> writeOutput(now() & "<br />"); writeOutput(dateFormat(now(),'mm/dd/yyyy') & '<br />'); writeOutput(dayOfWeek(day(dateFormat(now(),'mm/dd/yyyy'))) & '<br />'); writeOutput(dayOfWeekAsString(dayOfWeek(day(dateFormat(now(),'mm/dd/yyyy'))) )); </cfscript> Here is my output: {ts '2013-01-09 16:21:22'} 01/09/2013 2 Monday It Seems that we're ok until the third line, where it return the numeric day of week (today, 01/09/2013) as 2 and string value of Monday when the expected return is 4 and Wednesday. I admit it's entirely possible I'm missing a minor detail or something (wouldn't be the first time), but I can't figure out what's going on here. Anyone have ideas?
