I don’t believe we are having this discussion!!!
See Last Tuesday God got feed up with us and destroyed everything. Then, two weeks later he has a change of mind and recreates everything as it would have been if he had never destroyed us in the first place. (Including the missing two weeks.)
So, in reality we are not having this conversation.
It could happen; the power of creation implies the power of destruction and recreation.

However, it is not unreasonable to assume:
A) You exist.
B) Everyone else also exists.
C) Your memories (especially recent ones) are valid.
For example, I remember that I'm supposed to go to a meeting now. Since I exist, and the people at the meeting exist, I'd better get going, since I remember that they will be displeased if I am late.
Now, it may turn out that my car has been replaced with a wedding cake, and when I get to the place of the meeting I realize that I am the only person in the world. I may even realize that I am but a dream of the of the aforementioned wedding cake. Nonetheless, skipping the meeting for fear of yeilding my existance to a cake would be a poor excuse. Ergo, it is best to assume A,B, and C.
