Day 1

Not sure how to start this. Never had a Bio-Computer of my own before, and I've never kept any kind of journal before. But, I just got this a couple days ago, and found this feature that'll let me record voice journals. So, I figure: Why not? This way, at least if the worst happens to me and some mutant critter ends up munching my hide or some nutjob gets a lucky bullet through my head, people'll know I was here. What I did. And hopefully, they'll know what killed me, and where they can find and kill it for me.
(*Rustling sounds of slight movements*)
I guess I should start with how I got this thing, and who I am. My name's Alex Gofer. Used to be a raider, few years ago, now I guess I'm just a gun-for-hire. My “family”, the gang, got wiped out by another band. It was the middle of the night, an ambush, but I managed to get away. Saw a few others running in the dark, but...eh, I just haven't really felt like trying to find 'em or anything. Truth be told (and if I can't be honest here, I guess I never can), I never really felt like one of them. We had some fun times, but...
Yeah, guess you can't hear a shrug. Need to get used to this.
So instead, I just took the rifle I had on my back, and of course my favorite weapon, Disc, and I lit out on my own. When I got tired, I slept in a gully. Sun rose, I walked again. Hunted when I was hungry, finally found some farmers. Not much of a farm of course, everything was shriveled, and I still say I saw some plants glowing. And I was tired of all the kill-kill-kill that the gang had said, so I just...offered to help them, trade for some stuff, and some water. It was nice getting a drink without having to worry I was gonna die for it.
Shit, I've gotten off on a tangent, now. I said I'd explain how I got this Bio-Comp first. Gaaahh, gimme a minute....!
