Blood Test

Nurse: Are you ready?

Me: I suppose so. It’s been a while since I’ve had this done.

Nurse: You’re not going to piss the floor are you?

Me: Well, I wasn’t planning on it.

Nurse: Don’t worry, I’m very gentile.

Me: I’m still allowed to say “ouch” aren’t I?

[Inserts needle.]

Me: Ouch.

Nurse: Are you ok?

Me: Yep. The anticipation is always worse than the real thing.

[Vial number 2 finishes filling. Needle comes out.]

Nurse: There. See? Absolutely painless, right?

Me: Well I wouldn’t say painless, but it could have been a lot worse.

Nurse: Ok, you’re all set. Have a nice day.
