I figured it out.

lol.  Lookie what I found:

:ab abbreviation Full text, spaces are ok

What happens is when you type the abbreviation in vim, as soon as you 
hit the space bar it is expanded to the full text. The abbreviation dmv 
in the prior example would expand to "Department of Motor Vehicles." If 
you close vim these settings are lost unless you commit them to your 
.vimrc file.

Here's my new .vimrc file:

set autoindent               "keeps the indenting the same when you hit 
return"
syntax on                      "turns on syntax highlighting
ab sf someName            "auto-completion sequence: type abbreviation, 
hit space bar to expand
