I dated an ER nurse and when we would be driving or holding hands she would be palpating my veins and not realize that she was, was funny.
For me personally, EJ's make me salivate lol. Big ole thick EJ just begging for a needle to be stuck in it...

OMG!!! How funny, but soooo true. I always notice the veins. I'll be holding my hubby's hand and rubbing my finger up and down the veins in his hands and thinking "Oh ya, I bet I could land that one!" Meanwhile, he's saying "I love it when you hold my hand." Lol :)

My hubby is on to me! He always gets creeped out when he feels his veins "squish" as he calls it - I love to tell him how I could get a 10g in his big squishy veins and he turns a bit green.
And yep - I notice everyone's veins : )

My kids call me the "mompire" because I am always palpating their veins and telling them I will love to start IV on them! Lol! I even do this on my parents and my siblings

I just told my 14 yo step-son the other day that he was growing up so fast I could drop a 14 gauge in him. His reply..."That's just disgusting." He's growing like a weed and is very athletic and just got his "grown-up" veins not that long ago...plus he's pale so they show really well.
