Yes I was told to use the Apple Hardware Tester and everything came back okay. I read a list of items that were opening at login to the Apple Tech and Growl was the first thing they told me to stop from opening - I did and it solved the problem.
I have since uninstalled/reinstalled Growl, kept it turned on, and duplicated the experiment with letting the computer sleep then waking it back up and everything seems to be working now. I guess I should just chalk this up to a messed up install? -- R.J.
