Pin cushion

I've been tossing this snippet of conversation around in my head for at least a week, and finally decided to write it down so I can start thinking about something else. Still, it has made me grin a few times just thinking about it:

I had said something to Jeremy about my needle desensitization and he grimmaced and said, "You mean you just stick someone with needles until they can't feel anything anymore?!" I explained that that was not the case, but it makes total sense out of context. How horrible!!
