Started wearing contacts today

I've worn glasses off and on for 50% of my life. My eyesight isn't terrible, I just have a stigmatism from staring at a computer screen for too long. A couple of months ago when I visited my opthamologist, I mentioned that I would like to give contacts a try. He campaigned against the decision, saying contacts for stigmatism are tricky, but set up the appointment.

I was fitted for them this morning and wore them for 4 hours before taking them out at lunch for an hour. I just spent the last 10 minutes trying to get the slimy things back in. I like wearing them, but certainly feel weird without the glasses. Hopefully, I'll get better at putting them in and taking them out. My eyes are bloodshot from the learning curve.
