is planning a big bash (at least one dozen people) with plenty of drinking at one of the Mexican food restauraunts that is opening on Friday. These are people that are 35-45 years old with children at home. I had the same WTF reaction and was wondering if they planned to quarantine themselves for two weeks afterwards. It makes all of the isolation that I've kept up with so well the past seven weeks seem ridiculous.
