Well, this is an entry for the kids I used to babysit. I ordered some purple colored contacts for fun a few years back. During the weeks in between their arrival, I told two children that a scary new disease was going around. It was deadly, and the only visual symptom was having purple eyes. A few week later I had to explain to crying children that I was joking. Whoops.
