But basic idiomatic use would be a simple

,-----------------------------------------
| * TODO [#C] Python Test <2014-05-29 Do>
`-----------------------------------------

or maybe using a period with 2 timestamps

 ,---------------------------------
 | <2014-05-29 Do>--<2014-05-30 Fr>
 `---------------------------------

or SCHEDULED or DEADLINE planning elements. You can even use repeaters
etc then. 

Your system uses time info for file structuring, but Org has timestamps
for time info and the agenda for dealing with time and organizing
entries.
