Highlights from this day
pinch
warming the vial in your hand for a minute is the cheapest comfort improvement there is
is bruising more about the needle or the aftercare
*Janoshik not the other one
small bubble is fine
welts at the site are usually a mild local reaction and rotation sorts it
let the alcohol dry. that is ninety percent of "my injections sting"

i keep the sharps bin next to the fridge so the whole thing happens in one place

update from 12 months ago: switched to a fixed rotation and the site reactions stopped, not advice obviously
cold from the fridge genuinely stings more. i let it sit out for ten minutes
push slowly. fast is what causes the ache afterwards
90 degrees or 45
