Perception

I was flipping through the television and came across the Live Well channel. It was my first experience with the channel, and I assumed that it was all about health. Perfect! If I saw that sriracha taco commercial one more time than this diet might be OVER. It seemed like a safe haven from the barrage of commercials urging me to eat this and drink that. None of which are items that I’m currently interested in endorsing. Oddly enough, there aren’t a ton of commercials pimping the virtues of the veggies and fruit that are mainstays of my diet right now. But I guess that’s another topic for another day.

Imagine my surprise when the segment was all about cocktails. While I’m off the wagon for the next 10 days at least, I plan on enjoying a fun drink again so I was excited to learn about living healthy and enjoying a cocktail. And then the hostess proceeded to mix a cocktail made with beer. Not even a light beer, but a dark, smooth, decadent looking stout…Urrrghhh, I do not need to be thinking about beer right now! Humph, so much for living well!

When I mentioned it to Garett his response was spot-on.

Well, sounds like they are living well…

Oh, right.
