long weekend
It was good with sadness sort of over the whole thing...
I found out Friday at 6pm that my cousin Tripp (his grandma is my great aunt) was robbed and killed at the tattoo place he worked at on Hull Street. It happened at like 4:30 that afternoon. It is especially difficult for my great aunt for he was her only grandchild and for my cousin because Tripp was his only child. Tripp was 24 years old and we found out that his girlfriend is expecting and is due on his birthday in December. It is rumored that he has another child out there, but that is a whole other story. His body was released yesterday and his parents have to go and identify him today at 2 pm. They still haven't seen him I don't think. It is thought that was a drug thing and that the people who did this wanted money for drugs. From what we are told, Tripp did not put up a fight so it is possible, since one of the guys had a tattoo, that they were former customers and knew that Tripp could identify them. Supposedly, the three guys who were involved in this were arrested yesterday, but there has been nothing on the news or their websites. Tripp's funeral will be sometime this week. None of you guys knew him.
Besides all of this going on, I also went to a birthday party, a wedding, and finally relaxed around my aunt's pool yesterday.
On a better note, when are we going to the beach? I need dates so I can work it out with work.
