 * My Category Widget in the sidebar has the # number of posts in that category 
   underneath the category title … I’d like it on the same line.

 * add a filter to functions.php of your theme:
 *     ```
       add_filter('wp_list_categories', 'cat_count_inline');
       function cat_count_inline($links) {
       $links = str_replace('</a> (', ' (', $links);
       $links = str_replace(')', ')</a>', $links);
       return $links;
       }
       ```
