A newbie's first quad injection (and I think I might've screwed it up)
Anyway I put the needle in the quad, shoot it and everything's fine. I take it out and go to throw it away and I notice there's a tiny dot of blood in the part right after the needle. That's real bad isn't it?

did you aspirate ? Pull back on the plunger once the dart is in? If you did and no blood came back into the syringe, but instead...little bubbles...no worries. If you did not aspirate, who knows? Most likley, it was just a small vessel somewhere in the path of the dart. MAKE SURE TO ASPIRATE EVERY INJECTION!

That's not neccesarily a bad thing. Did you aspirate ? If so, and you got no blood, then you're fine. If you didn't, well, you should have. I have gotten a small amount of blood in the needle when removing it if it had passed through a vein on the way in. Your body's blood pressure will sometimes push a little blood back into the needle if this is the case and you pull the needle out slowly.
This is not a bad thing, but a reminder of the imprtance of aspirating.

Taken from the "steroid injection info" link on AR's homepage...
...insert the clean new needle deep into the muscle. Once the needle is all the way into the muscle, pull back on the plunger to check if blood enters the syringe. If this happens it means that you have entered a blood vessel and that you need to withdraw and try again. Withdraw the needle from the buttocks and push the blood out of the syringe. Then replace the tip to ensure that the blood is not hidden in the tip of the needle. If there is not blood present, press the stopper in slowly (to prevent soreness) until all of the liquid has been injected.

Aspiration, as I understand it, is to prevent shooting directly into a vein. If you do, the oil can potentially stop your heart or cause a stroke, rather than being deposited and slowly assimilated. If you pull the stopper and blood immediately starts to rush into the syringe, you've hit a vein. I've read you should pull lightly for five seconds to make sure you're okay to go.
I've also read that if you do pull blood, it's best to expell the blood (I used the sink), then change needles before reinjecting to prevent infection. Recap the old needle, unscrew it, pull in a little air, replace the needle, then expell the air and a little oil again and you're ready to go.
