Oh trust me, you'll know if you put them in inside out..

You can look at the little ridge and see if it's folded in or out... Maybe I should actually start doing that.

I got hot sauce in my eyes once. You ever put your contacts in inside out? Now that's painful.

When I first started wearing contacts in my early 20s I wore them a whole day inside out, I didn't know. They'd be alright for awhile and then irritate the heck out of me. I stopped at our local pennysaver newspaper place (pre Craig's List or even online ad days) to post a ad. When I got to the counter they started bothering me again, OMG! I couldn't even open my eyes...then they were fine. Later that night stopped at a buddies house that always wore contacts, he said they were probably inside out....now how I could get both of them in like that at the same time I don't know...
Never made that mistake again. Lol!

I've been wearing contacts since I was eleven, kept breaking or losing my glasses running around the place. I used to check them, and then I just thought what the heck, and just put them in whatever way they came out of the packet. It was a Sunday, I woke up really late, made myself a spicy chicken wrap and then went to put my contacts in without washing my hands. Not only that, but I put it in Inside out. I totally freaked out, tried to get it out and ended up pushing it to the back of my eye. And then there are times I've had allergies, or got shampoo in my eyes while wearing them. It's taken me years to get used to wearing them, and I still do stupid things every now and then. Maybe when I'm twenty one I can get laser eye surgery. Knowing me that'll probably go wrong too

"Penny Saver," oh my, how I remember and miss that. It was great for selling almost anything and fortunately nothing creepy like Craig's list has become. Even got a couple of dates through. Okay so 'that' was a little creepy.

I miss it, too. We have something similar up here, though... Uncle Henry's. It's fun to peruse and doubles as fire starter in winter.

I used to read it weekly. I also advertised cars for sale weekly.

A few years back, when I actually had a garden, I grew some Jalapenos (potted starter plants) that I bought at wally world. The plants never really grew that big but they were loaded with small peppers. I sliced one of them up into a bowl of chili (without seeds) and set my mouth ablaze. I have no idea what happened but they were the hottest peppers I've even eaten. I couldn't eat them they were so hot.

My Favorite oldest daughter worked at a fast food burger place with a bunch of Hispanics and she asked if she could bring them to work with her for them to try. When she came home after doing so, she said she was rolling on the floor laughing when these folks tried the peppers. Only one of them could handle the heat and she was an older woman who took the whole batch home. They looked like jalapenos, not like any of the hotter peppers.

I thought maybe the plant had been mislabeled or something.

I got one from Meijer that looked like an anaheim or a very large jalepeno and it was the hottest thing ive ever tasted. None of my friends could identify it.
