My mini rant: Here’s a prelude from back in June… > [@June, no, NOTHING! (Monthly Mini-Rants)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/june-no-nothing-monthly-mini-rants/1019081/351): > > My mini-rant is a few weeks old, but for reasons that’ll be obvious soon, I only think of it to post at a time I can’t. Somehow just now I finally remembered while I’m already here. Background: I wear contact lenses every day that are taken out for cleaning every night and also discarded after about a months’ use. They’re kinda expensive, ~$50 per lens. They come in a 6 lens = 6 month package; one set for each eye. Getting more is a slow process and I usually need a different Rx every 6 month… Well, i did it again. Two new lenses about 5 days ago. Got home from beaching yesterday and bedtime last night = Sat, no lens in one eye. Same eye. Of course. Fuckity fuck fuck. Need to reschedule eye exam appt and resupply for at least a month early. Dammit. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/unjust-august-mini-rants/1021570)._
