Kim

Well, yesterday was new parents day. For the afternoon, me and Simon went to play poker, while Kel stayed home to babysit (and for those who know their poker, I went out with the sickest of sick beats - I had 88, opponent had QT - flop came 8TT giving me a full house, and he caught a queen on the river to give him the bigger full house. I swore).

For the night, we left Simon to babysit, while I took Kel to Jaks for her first night out since Jayden was born. Part way through the night, I met Kim. Kim is 18 (I know, a little young - my only reservation), very sweet, works at Revolution (very funky cocktail bar in Hanley), and was also extremely drunk. I took her out for some fresh air, and held her hair back while she threw up her drinks. Then we got food, and I held her hair back while she threw that up too. Since she was clearly done for the night, we headed back into Jaks, got her some water, and I jumped in a taxi with her to make sure she got back safe. Once she'd been dropped off, I went back to Jaks to make sure Kel got home OK.

Today, me and Kim have been texting a lot, and I'm just about to head down to Hanley again, to go and grab a cuppa with her and see how we get on when she's sober. From my point of view at least, she *definitely* has potential.

Update: After a thoroughly enjoyable pub lunch, we have learned two things: Me and Kim get on well, and Kim is not looking for a full on boyfriend. Add these two things together, and it seems I have a new fuck buddy. Which is nice.
