I Guess I Shouldn’t Have Stayed Up Until 11:00 Watching “Top Chef”

Last night I tried to take out my contacts and nothing happened.

Nothing came out. It was all very strange.

So I checked in my contact case and those little suckers were already in there.

I have absolutely no recollection of taking them out.

The freaky part is that I must have taken them out less than 10 minutes before I tried to take them out again. Is this early onset Alzheimer’s Disease? Did I have a blackout? Did aliens come down and remove my contacts and then erase my memory? Was it Hiro playing a practical joke?

Whatever happened it made me feel stupid and it hurt really bad. The end.

  1. I’ve definitely done that before. I simply assumed that I’d been abducted and probed by aliens, but remembered nothing and, therefore, thought that my contacts were still in.

    I’ve done that. What was really gross was how hard I was pulling at the top layer of my eyeball. I always thought people who were afraid of touching their eyeballs were weird, but I guess it’s not so irrational when you have people like me going at them.

    ouch!

  4. Know the feeling. Nothing like scratching at your cornea for five minutes before realizing you’ve been there, done that.

    Perhaps, like Tiny Tim’s gimpy leg, your lame eyesight has been cured.

    It’s a Christmas miracle!

    My money is on aliens.

    Or your were daydreaming about Tom Collichio.

    Definitely dementia.

    Okay, I’ve heard of the aliens doing the exams and such, but never removing contacts. Must be a new variety.

  9. I have so done that before. Usually, it happens if I get distracted right after I take them out. And since I am sure, neither of us has anything that could POSSIBLY be distracting.. I am voting for aliens, for both of us.

    Sounds like somebody needs to lay off the booze :)

    That sounds like something that I would do, when I’m not walking into furniture.

  12. Gibby says:

    Uh, yeah, I’ve done that before. A lot. Especially on nights that involve a lot of wine.

    And I love Top Chef, but darn, do I get hungry watching it.

    I wear glasses to work at the computer. If I wear them while I am walking I fall down. Sometimes I fall down a lot and then realise I still have them on.

    I think that is way more Alzheimerey.

    I’m just glad you didn’t pop your eyeball out. That would not help your vision one bit.

  15. Jen says:

    Heh. I’ve done the same thing. I’ve also tried to put a contact into an eye that already has a contact in it. Good times.

    i’m pretty sure it was aliens. they like to f*ck with you.
