Does accidently jabbing yourself with an unprotected lancet count? It went all the way in, and it hurt!

I don't think I've done it with the UltraSoft but I've done it with others. I really hate removing the cap to take the lancet out and sticking myself that way, or trying to put the cap back on a needle after taking an injection and sticking myself in a finger instead. That seems to hurt the most since I'm usually pushing the cap with a lot of force.

me one
love, one lifetime . . .
Lead me, save me
from my solitude . . .

Say you want me
with you ,
here beside you . . .
Anywhere you go
let me go to . . .
