You create a directory inside your web root named “blog” and install wordpress there.
Where is your blog installed? In the root or in a directory – like yoursite.com/blog ?

It’s just on http://amandamarie.info .
I want to use wordpress to keep up the site, but I don’t want the blog posts to be on the first page.
You can move it into a folder called “blog”

If it’s just that you don’t want blog entries on the front page you can use one of the static front page plugins and use a WordPress “page” for your front page, as I do on http://jaredquinn.info.

Got everything working pretty well, but one thing…
How do I implement the is_home() function to not even display (or at least not display anything in) the sidebar when the home page is loaded?
Can I change the stylesheet so that the background color for the sidebar changes to the background color of the main area when it’s at the home page?
I use this one:
if($post->post_name == ‘home’) { … }
