Last night we saw Sex and the City in Southern Pines. Because there isn't a movie theater in Cheraw. 

It took a while for me to get started this morning, partly because I had the time to wake up, walk around, go back to sleep, make lunch... 

We didn't have to be at Sheila's office until 1 pm because today we went to court. Part of Sheila's job is to be a court advocate, so we got to go to two order of protection cases. We got to court early, talked about classes, met the judge, and then colored with one of the women's kids. The first woman was asking for an order of protection because her husband pulled out a shotgun when she told him that she was leaving him. He begged for her to come back home in court. In the second case, the woman accused her baby daddy of sexually assaulting her in front of her son. Neither of the women was awarded their requests, and both cases were painful to watch. No one understood why they didn't have lawyers. 

Will, Snayha, and I shopped at Wal-mart. Then I used a bag clip to clip my ipod to my shirt and blasted music while I set the table. 

And then, Matt, Hannah, and I went fishing. It was beautiful. We saw 2 beavers (maybe otters?), 2 frogs (I caught one, and then Hannah caught one), and a baby deer. Matt caught 4 fish, Hannah caught two, and I took pictures. We only kept one, and I petted him as he died.

As we were leaving, we got to the gate of the state park, and it was locked. So we stopped by Matt's boss' house. She had caught a black widow.
