I am a human pincushion

It is easier to get a camel through the eye of a needle than it is to get an accutane prescription filled.

Today I had to do routine blood tests. They took me back, set me up, and stuck a needle in my left arm.

No blood.

So the lab tech takes it out, gets a new needle, re-sets me up, and sticks a needle in my right arm.

No blood.

So she says, "huh, weird, I'm going to go get the other lab tech."

I wait ten minutes, the other lab tech comes in, gets a new needle, sets me up, sticks it in my right arm again.

Blood on the first try.

So now both my elbows are sore.
