 A little off-topic, but AF question 
I just got my period back on Sunday after a year!  You know how they tell you to start on the pill on Sunday?  So, here's the question...should I have started taking my BC pill this past Sunday, or would I start this coming Sunday?

No I think you take it the Sunday after your period has ended.  I know when I'm on my period, I'm taking the sugar pills and start a new pack the Sunday following.

So, basically, I should go back on next month and hope AF doesn't show on a Sunday

  That is once you are on it. When you are first starting out you take it the Sunday after you first start your period or if you start your period on Sunday you start it that day. After that it works out that your active pills are after your period ends.
