Quick funny story
We had a "know your numbers" fair today at work where they are drawing blood and running tests for free. So there I am with the rubber band around my left arm and she is trying to get the vein to pop. She is feeling, feeling, feeling…..DUH.
"Um, can you use my right arm? I pole dance and that is the elbow I use for some of the grips so you might have problems on that one."
She banded my right arm and instantly was able to get the vein to pop!

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I would be an ideal candidate, all I have to is drop my arms down and my veins plump up and stick out – they never have a problem getting my blood.
Why is it though that some kind poke you and you never feel a thing and then others poke you and it stings like a mother? When I get a bad nurse who hurts me I feel like giving her a swift kick in the shin – whoops, sorry ’bout that – involuntary muscle spasm https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif
On the topic of blood and needles – my hubby stood proud through the births of our children and never once got woozy, until the nurse came into do an IV. She did her thing and left. I starting to get this feeling like I had peed myself because my bed got all warm and liquidy – nah, no pee – just tons of my blood everywhere – soaked into my bed, dripped onto the floor – it looked like a crime scene https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif She forgot to cap off the other end or something and my IV turned into a blood squirting contraption. I never saw my husband so ghostly white in all my life!! Ah, childbirth, what lovely memories.

Heh I had to get a tetanus booster last week as a precautionary measure because I’m going overseas for a holiday starting from next week and it had been a while since I’d had my last shot. The nurse asked me which arm I wanted it in and seeing as I’d heard that tetanus shots can be one of the more lingeringly painful ones, I instantly said "left. I need the right one for my pole class tonight" https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I think these belong on those "You know you’re a pole addict when…" list!
