Just want to mention couple of things:
1. storing both WeekStart and WeekEnd is redundant unless you want Weeks != 7
days long
MySQL will accept following where clause:
... WHERE NOW() BETWEEN WeekStart AND WeekStart + INTERVAL 7 DAY;

2. This is wrong assumption because when you issue NOW() at midnight it will
contain 00:00:00 and will fall out of any of Your weeks :)
In mine above example WeekStart can be DATE type and it will still give you
correct result.
Read more about MySQL Date/Time functions at
http://www.mysql.com/doc/D/a/Date_and_time_functions.html
Having functions like WEEK(date) and TO_DAYS() you might find you don't need to
store even WeekStart.
Questions like "Given NOW() find WeekStart and WeekEnd" can be answered in
single statement in MySQL :)
