These are a few words that I identify myself as.
Today, I discovered that I have failed as a mother. While I was driving my 14 year old to band camp, she turned to me and my failed motherhood, came crashing down around me, right there in my car.
J: Mom, what is Jesus Christ Super Star, about? I mean, besides the obvious?
Me: What? How do you not know the answer to that?
J: I am playing the music in band. There are words, like, 'I love him so'
Me: You are talking about the musical, Jesus Christ Super Star, right?
J: Ya, what's it about?
Me: (stepping out of alternate universe where my daughter does not know this & rolling my eyes) The obvious. Read the script. Watch the show. Rent the movie. Listen to the soundtrack.
I drop her off, and drive all the way home- shaking my head in disbelief.
