*gasp* It works! See, I was wondering why there wasn’t a is_category in there. o.O I just wasn’t able to figure out too much exactly how to go around writing it. Which, in retrospect seems foolish.
Thank you so much for your assistance pixel-Jay!! Now it does exactly what I wanted!!

I did manage to get it so that I could have most posts show when I click into a category, which is nice, but I’m still scratching my head over getting the_excerpt in just for categories and not for the home page.
