So last night we were riding in the evening, the humidity and rain has sent the bugs into over drive. My Tifosis started to collect salt from the profuse amount of sweating I was doing so I stuck them in my back pocket, leaving my eyes unprotected but at least I had clear vision. About 10 minutes later a bug (one of those little icky gnat type things) flew in my eye! It hurt and was is worse is my immediate instinct was to throw my sweaty hand up towards my eye. Now I had a bug and salt in there!

Add insult to the situation, we were turning the last corner in our neighborhood and one of the same type flew in my other eye!! I didn't learn the first time so I immediately went for my eye.

The final gross part of this story? I ran into the bathroom to see the little dead bugs in trapped in my eyes, my tearing up didn't flush them out. I immediately flushed my eyes with drops. This is officially grosser than accidently swallowing one. DH and I thought it was pretty funny once I got my eyes rinsed and not red from the salty sweat in them.
