Ringo Glassow

Am I filling this out right? Not sure...

Um, hi. I'm Ringo, last name Glassow, said like Glahz-ow. I'm uh... 26, from Tennessee, born and raised in the mountains near Nadsville. Lotta big name music stars and their pompous kids sticking their noses up at me as a little kid. Didn't bother me too much as a kid, but it was definitely frustrating later on in life. I think around 15, 16 maybe? When I was starting to get into the job market..

It wasn't a bad thing necessarily, but... a lot of the higher up positions had been taken up by some of those snobby rich kids.. No room for improvement over someone with that many connections.. But I still kept my chin up and tried my best to claw my way up the ladder, at one point even managed to get a decent pay raise at one job... But... I was staying in a shitty run down apartment, in a horrible neighborhood, working 3 different jobs and still barely making ends meet. Needless to say it sucked...

Then I saw an ad on Bleeter, 'bout a city way out west. Los Santos, it was called. Land of opportunity apparently. I figured the horrible day to day was enough in Nadsville so I packed up and moved. Ended up with only one bag and my car. Managed to get to Los Santos, but my car and bag got stolen the very first night. Some tough guy with a scar I think, not really sure.

Eh.. now I just... start from the bottom I guess.. World is my oyster eh? Wonder what that even means anyway..

Glad to hear it. Hope I can manage to scratch out some kind of living. Been doing courier work so far. Had a rough time with money delivery. Think I accidentally sent a man to the ER. He came flyin' around the corner and slammed head on into the truck.

 

((Apologies. Wasn't aware, and there's not really anything to say about him thus far. No real connections or major events. Is it possible to update this as I go? Like a journal almost?))

Four months in and I've been scratching out what I can with mining. High time to find a home and crew though I think.. Four months of passing by strangers and only giving small glances or hellos.

Well, here we are at what might be the lowest point of the few months I've been in the city so far. Still quiet as far as networking goes and money is low but steadily coming in... and as I tried to adjust prices to offload some of my old cars, I accidentally got my good one towed to the impound by some a super helpful Mechanic..
No issues on that part and it was just him doing his job, but come to find out at impound I had a misdemeanor on my record that I didn't realize was there....

So here we are... Cop was nice though! And luckily it's small.

Alright, finally into month.... five now? I think? Damn... haven't been keeping track for this journal well enough...

Ahh well.. Finally managed to get a real bed! Rented out a cozy little apartment from a guy named James... uh.... Sardinsky? I think? Hopefully spelled it right.

So things are looking up! Now just to get the whole... networking thing down...

 

Cheers for now! 

Wait.... do I have to sign off in my own journal?...... ahh fuck it.
