Yeah, it looks like the value is a string instead of a datetime object
at that point. How did you instantiate the object? Did you pass it
strings, or datetime objects, or did you rely on the auto_now_add?

I've got Django integrated with pdb in my local copy of the
development server, and I'm just trying to figure out the smartest way
to do it. Currently it drops into pdb to handle all exceptions when I
launch django-admin.py runserver with the "--pdb" option -- but
ideally you wouldn't have to pass that, and it should automatically
ask you whether you wanted to drop into pdb.
