    All the places here have curbside. Hell, you can get paper towels and toilet paper at BB’s as well. They do a curbside hurricane where they give you 2 bottles of rum and a gallon of their hurricane mix. Prolly get another local one next weekend.

    I’ve never had Viet-Cajun butter tossed crawfish. I’ve had LA Crawfish but just got the regular ones. We got the Tex-Orleans seasoning on these and it tastes like a normal seasoning with some chipotle. I ordered some on the side to see what they were fucking with. My favorite still is Ragin Cajun. I just like their seasoning and their bugs are soaked in them. I know that they boil them in it and not just season after the boil. Best I’ve ever had is Louisiana crawfish time in Lafayette, LA. I will return there when the world is right again. BB’s had the best deal that we’ve found per pound.

    I’m thinking I’m going to the protest tomorrow. Told my parents and they practically pleaded with me not to go.

    No they’re not trumpers.

    Not really that concerned about me to be honest. I feel like this is more of an issue than covid.

    I’d definitely mask up and still try to social distance if possible. Covid didn’t just up and go away. It’s the same at protests as it was at Memorial Day gatherings.
    Edit: it’s also about who you could spread the virus to as well.

    I am genuinely concerned for our city and its residents today.

    I am optimistic about the protests

    I have an awful feeling that a bunch of people are going to be out there without masks and touching a million people and corona is going to spread like wildfire

    My big worry as well. The city has kept it peaceful with minimal looting, relative to other larges cities and hopefully that continues today. A lot of places boarded up including the entire river oaks shopping center.

    We got an email from our building to leave by 2 from the office downtown yesterday but they just changed that to Noon a few minutes ago, due to traffic reasons and street closures.

    My wife works downtown and she’s leaving at noon

    I’m closing my office in west u at noon too because all of my staff lives outside the beltway and I don’t want them to be stuck if highways get shut down
