Employers shouldn't discourage side hustles—or hesitate to hire people who have them.

Data: after engaging evenings on their side gigs, people perform better the next day in their full-time jobs.

Side hustles aren’t a distraction. They’re a source of energy and empowerment.

The kids are singing "I Want it That Way." Not sure whether to facepalm or be happy they've moved on from "Never Gonna Give you Up"...

Granted, this is the first Tweet I've written in YEARS, so you may all think I'm crazy... but I agree with this statement. 100 percent.

Any day out of the whole year, and he picks a fight - over laundry, of all things - on VALENTINE'S DAY. #StupidMan

Nothing makes you feel quite so powerless as a five-year-old who isn't listening to a word you say.

Somehow kids are already in bed. Should be doing: homework and housework. Will probably do instead: tool around on the internet until HIMYM.

Shirked responsibility, went to Aunt Kendra's, split a bottle of wine (ok, 80/20), put on some Boston & watched Bad Lip Reading #BestDayEver

I really do love my parents. But why did they ever have to get on Facebook? #seriously

Newt Gingrich just said, "Santorum is surging..." with a straight face.

@thepioneerwoman Sounds like a good workout! :)

I do not care what my husband says. If we ever win the lottery, I WILL buy myself an expensive pair of impractical shoes.

[Mel @whatocd]

And my computer finally works again!!! Yay!!!

[Mel @whatocd]

@thepioneerwoman I just got online... Lord of the Rings: Return of the King!!! I know this one! Sheesh, I'm such a geek. #NameThatMovie

[Mel @whatocd]

"Mommy, tickle me!" Giggle, giggle. "No, stop!" Pause.... "Mommy, can you please tickle me again?" My kid is so weird sometimes.

[Mel @whatocd]

Sigh. Someday I'll have money for a smartphone (and a data plan to go with it) and I won't have to curse the internet being down at home.

Woke up this morning to two kitty paws digging into my stomach, two kitty paws digging into my chest, and a faceful of fur greeting me.

My three-year-old is apparently an old geezer: when my husband turned up 2pac in the car last night, he said, "Daddy, turn off that noise."
