Nurse: I'll just swab here and paint your arm a lovely shade of yellow.
Nurse: *gets out needle*
Me: *looks firmly in the other direction*
Nurse: There! All done!
Me: That was very smooth!
Nurse: Thank you - I notice you looked away.
Me: I never look.
Nurse: Oh I don't either!

Eep!

And I am ignorant on all things medical, is 120 good bad or indifferent?

Well really? Why would s/he want to look at where s/he was aiming the needle. S/he probably doesn't like the sight of blood!
