I'm one of those people that (even before getting contacts) would put their fingers in their eyes just to freak out people like you, so adjusting to contacts wasn't so bad.
but yeah. once it's in, don't blink for a couple seconds, or it'll come right back out.
and contacts really aren't that troublesome. glasses always came off at inopportune times (during sports, for example) and got in the way of safety glasses. wearing contacts is like having 20/20 without lasering your retina. I put my contacts in in the morning, (it helps waking up, too - ::snore:: :

OKE:: :

OKE:: "ok! i'm up already!" - haha) and take em out at night, toss em in the trash (i have dailies) and go to bed.
either that or i leave em in cause i don't feel like taking em out. whatever works. glasses were always lost or broken or fallen into odd cracks between my bed and the wall.
and i could never find them.
