Time to try my most recent secret weapon...

Mmmm gooey. Kinda smells like a gritty shop soap, but I like it.

Well so I've been thinking about trying Champori for quite awhile now. The submitted testimonials pretty much speak for themselves, and I did a search for "does champori really work" on google and got linked to The National Psoriasis Foundations forum where (as I thought) someone had already asked this question. If you wanna read it, it's pretty informational (here). This was after I had already bought it. I got it in the mail yesterday. Just to see what they would say, I also sent them an email, asking if they had any kind of affiliate program and they responded promptly with:


"Dear Travis,
 
We don't. And are not looking for having one.
 
Regards,
 
Ollie M.
Champori"



Well that's pretty much exactly what I'd hoped I'd hear When psoriasis medications allow affiliate links and programs, anything you read about the product could then be biased in the interest of selling the product regardless of whether it works or not, just to make money.
I did learn however that if you send in a positive product testimonial, they will send you a large combo (cream & spray) for free. The reason that doesn't really bother me is because if it doesn't work, you obviously can't send in a testimonial, can you? So if this stuff does work I fully plan on sending one in, because I'm in school now (and totally broke without health insurance of course) so that little deal is quite nice I say.
It actually almost looks identical to what the Neem & Vaseline mix I made looked like.
I only paid for the cream, they sent this "sample" for free! And I'm glad they did because that cream is GOOEY. Not too happy about gobbing that all over my head before I go to school...
 Well so I'll be trying it out and we'll see how it goes. Here's a before pic I just took upstairs, so you can see where I'm at. Gimme a break, haven't shaved in a few days...




I will take more pictures in a few days. Keep in mind, all of the other psoriasis things I've tried aside from the shampoos, have been on my arms, and not my scalp. I've pretty much left my scalp untouched for the past few months because I just wear a lot of hats... well and I had enough hair to cover it up (until I cut it this morning) so it didn't bother me all that much. I cut it so I don't have to use as much of this precious cream getting it in my hair, instead of on my scalp. I find that with a buzz-cut like this it gets better application, and I use way less cream.

Stress? What stress?


So I went floating the river yet again yesterday and my wallet fall out of my truck. I realized this about 15 minutes after it happened, and by the time I got back to my parking spot, there it was, sitting there empty. Now, not too many things can make me mad. I've been fired from jobs, rear-ended, rear-ended other people on the freeway... stepped on a nail that went all the way through my foot... etc. But nothing makes me angry like getting something stolen from me. I was literally livid!! I was so angry I ran barefoot through bark and gravel the quarter mile from the parking spot to the river where everyone was drinking and talked to every separate group I found. It had to have been someone who JUST left, or JUST got there. Well long story short, I got over it and my cards all got canceled in time, so essentially all that I lost was the $65 in cash that was in it. Eh whatever, that can be replaced, but getting something taken from you sure is stressful, and psoriasis sure loves stress. Since I'm already over it, I'm thinking there wasn't too much of an impact on my psoriasis, but I just can't help but think that I could have gone and bought some new psoriasis medication with that money! Like maybe Champori or something, I've been hearing that works pretty well.
