WARNING: If you are my mom you may not want to read this blog post! (and if you do anyway, I don't want to hear anything about this later, please!)
So the question is: if you're separated from your soon-to-be-ex and you take a very cute drummer home with you at midnight after his gig and yadda yadda yadda you're really tired today... is that technically adultery? I am trying to decide whom to ask: a priest, pastor, etc.? I don't want to piss off the Lord!
Anyways, last night was such incredible fun. Vince Bell played a short but beautiful set and his rendition of "Woman of the Phoenix" always moves me so. I actually let a couple tears fall! Since his gig was just one set, that left me time to race downtown to try and catch the last of The El Orbits. But when I got there they were sitting at the bar trying to decide if they would continue playing since it was kinda dead there. They bought me a drink though and then did get up and do a short set of 5-ish songs, including "Mercy Mercy Mercy"--with lyrics and singer!!!!!! I was tickled.
And again, since that was a short set that left me time to run to the Continental Club to see my other friend's band, Umbrella Man, that I have been dying to see, like, forever. And when I got there my good friend F. was there, who I haven't seen in awhile but who I've been meaning to call and tell about my divorce. (But I've kinda been putting that off b/c he has always had a little thing for me and I don't want to think he can start up... anything.) F. is a HUGE fan of Umbrella Man and he has been telling me forever to come and check them out. It was a killer show and they rocked out seriously hard. My other friend was playing guitar with them and F. told me they had a "fill-in" drummer that night--but as I told F. the drummer was kicking ass and really doing incredibly well. Then I noticed how cute he was and was even more impressed! I decided he was going to be lucky enough to be invited to come to my place and watch The Last Waltz with me.
After the show the drummer came over near me and I told him how amazing he'd done as a fill-in. Turns out he knew me from the blues jams a few years ago, when he had been a very young drummer and said that we had even jammed together! So now I felt bad for not remembering him! Also turns out he had never seen TLW and I told him that must be rectified immediately, to which he agreed. So he came over and we watched the whole thing and we talked and smoked cigars and drank and turns out he is also going through a divorce. Bitches, man!
So in order to avoid this blog becoming a Sex and the City episode, I'll stop there but consequently I only got 3 hrs. sleep. Tonight will be a night of rest! No going out (although I'm a little tempted)! He's a sweet guy but I will not pursue him anymore except as a friend, and I made plans to come see him play next Monday. He is a seriously talented drummer, and even played with the legendary Johnny Nash ("I Can See Clearly Now") and toured Europe as well. Now... to find a preacher that can answer my question.

I can answer that one: since you were technically not married (annulment and all of those related reasons), then no, you did not technically commit adultery.
I used to believe in ablsolutes. In a past life I would have said yes. Now since the marriage is dissoved, I think you should follow your heart. If you are seeking approval. I am not the one to give it.
