TikTok, Instagram, SEO, More: Abbreviated Wednesday ResearchBuzz, January 1, 2020

Of course I got sick last night. Of course I did. There was no alcohol involved, either. Guess I’m just lucky. Anyway, I had to go out today because I was not going to start the new year by disappointing my Granny, and I promised myself that whatever I could do for RB while locked up with Eggo for her medications, I would do. This I have done. So I’m sending it out, giving Eggo her meds, and crawling back to bed. Hoping to get back to normal eventually.
