Honestly, glasses don't bother me at all, even in the rain. Also, I'm really cheap. Glasses cost me $350 or so, and last me 4 years. They'd last longer but the last set started losing their coatings then and I had to replace them.

Also, I had a few bad experiences when I got something in my eye and the contacts caused it to scratch my cornea. Also I had some trouble once while watching movies until early in the morning, had some drying, and caused some damage taking them out. Contacts may get better every year, but they'll never achieve the level of eye safety that glasses have.
