A profound sadness sits upon my heart this morning as I remember the caring Professor who has guided me the past few years. Dr. Goldson gently offered counsel in both my personal and professional life. Creating a belief in myself and my ability to make a difference in others. A kinder spirit I have never met and the world is a sadder place without his presence. My mind and heart were opened to so many different ideas and possibilities through his guidance that I feel it an injustice to not honor him and his life with praise and wine (red, his favorite).
"When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight". ~Kahlil Gibran

Colloquialism
I am a collector of colloquialism's ......... Whats that you ask?
It's those funny sayings certain people have that are quintessentially "them" and those in their circle or in the "know" completely understand the meaning when used in any context.
My favorites come from my Daddy, the man has a way with words....
"From Hell to Guinea" = Everywhere, all encompassing
" Plain talk is easy understood" = I have no need to sugar coat anything, this is what's on my mind
"Bull's Ass"= not real sure on this one but I believe it to be bullshit squared.
This will be a continuing feature stay tuned.....same bat time same bat channel.......

It's all in the name ....
As you may have guessed by the title of the blog my name is Buffy. I have both loved and hated my name but it has always been a source for conversation. I will however not be using this as a public soapbox on which to berate my well intentioned sister who cried insistently for this to be my plight in life, but I do reserve the right to regress at her expense when needed!
What you will find here is a brain dump of all the scattered randomness that is my existence. If you know me I don't have to explain :)........... you're apprehensive already!
This began as a school project yet slowly became the solution to my fear that I was losing sweet memories and silly giggles that I would always want to remember yet nature saw fit to rob me of, again if you know me I don't have to explain, what was I doing? Oh yeah!
Welcome to my life........
post script: things may be messy for a while as this is a revised blog and I am currently in the process of moving entries from my previous unpublished version.
