Billyoptimist,
I just recently got contacts too, and have problems putting them in...
Here is what I have noticed helps:
Before putting in your contacts, add a drop or two of either wetting drops or solution. (solution burns my eyes so I use the wetting drops). When they touch your eyes, the water actually helps them to smooth out onto the eye, helps it slide into place, and is alot let tramatic to the eye.
When I first started putting in my contacts it would take me about an hour, and then my eyes would be all beat-up (red and swollen)... I eventually had one of my roommates show me the trick. It really works.
Good luck. Like most have posted; it DOES get easier with time.

Faced with the Divine, I was asked; "What one gift do you seek?"
I answered ever so meekly; "I seek Honor, Truth, Integrity, and Wisdom, yet those are four. How am I to choose?"
The answer came as a pounding whisper; "The four you seek are but one. I grant thee Compassion; for without it the four make none."
