  var oneDay = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
  //@TODO: allow for this function to receive both a date or timestamp

  //loop through to get total number of days in the month remaining
  //we can determine this by looping through and adding a day to the current day until the month is different from the current month

  for(i = this.getDate() + 1; i < 50; i++) { //starting at the current day, count up until the month is not the same as the current month
    //calculate the day's timestamp
    iterdate = new Date(iterdate.getTime() + oneDay); //get a new object from the iterdate + one day

    }
