For some reason you're trying to set the value of your date fields to
a *field*. Just as with any other field, you need to set the value of
the field to the corresponding value - for a charfield, you would set
it to a string:
self.mycharfield = "mystring"
and for an integer you would do:
self.myintegerfield = 1
so for a date field you just set it to a date:
self.mydatefield = datetime.date.today()
