Mornin', Torog! How are you today, my sweet friend?

Yep, missing a vein does indeed suck. And that's such a basic IV skill that it makes me question the competency of the lethal injection team in Florida. Seems to me like it ought to be their job to get something as basic as that done right.

I've had heart catheterizations before to deal with a heart arrhythmia I have. They've gone in through the femoral arteries and vein in my groin. It's hard to miss those veins because they're so big, but boy does it hurt when they're finished. And it leaves the biggest knot you've ever felt. Don't know why this made me think of that, but it did!
