Needles in eyes.

Did you know hospital gowns are so sexy? Yeah, me neither. Did you know hospital beds are really not comfortable? Yeah, I did.And the food, oh it's oh so sucky!

I hate happy people when I'm uncomfortable. I hate it. I hate. I hate it. Did I mention I hate it? I'm not very fond of needles either. But I deal with them. But when you stick me 2 times in the elbow when I tell you that you can't get a needle in my elbow, I'll put that needle in your eye. Then when you move to my forearm and stick me 2 times there, and miss both times, I'll stick those 2 needles in your eyes too. And then the hand. The hand is where I told you to go in the first place asshole. But you miss that vein too. Well you're just dumb. I could have gotten that needle in there. If you try 5 times and still can't get it, well then I think you need to call the IV team. So Miss I Can't Get A Needle In To Save My Life calls the IV team down. The lady comes in. She's too happy for me. She has a huge smile on as she puts her gloves on and opens up the package that has all that shit in for blood and IVs. I tell Miss Smiles Too Much that she should not go for the elbow. What does she do? Goes for the fucking elbow. She only tried once. Then I said GO FOR THE HAND! And she listened. And voila, I'm typing with a need in my hand. It's driving me up a fucking wall. I'm starving. I need to pee. I want to sleep. But who can sleep in hospital beds? And who can sleep when nurses are in and out of your room all night? Geeze.

Do you get where I'm going with all this?
