As the shoe company from Portland would say, "just do it". The key is
knowing that the seq() function has a variant operating on the Date
class:

[1] "2008-04-22"

function (from, to, by, length.out = NULL, along.with = NULL,
...)
NULL
> seq(today, by="month", length=1)
[1] "2008-04-22"
> seq(today, by="month", length=2)
[1] "2008-04-22" "2008-05-22"
> seq(today, by="week", length=2)
[1] "2008-04-22" "2008-04-29"
> seq(today, by="day", length=2)
[1] "2008-04-22" "2008-04-23"
