Okay so here is the update from the experience
I brought 5 gallons up to 170 degrees and mixed in the DME. All went well until i turned a blind eye and the hot break on the DME caught me by surprise, oops, and I had a boilover. I boiled for 10 minutes, and then put in the liquid malt. I brought that up to a boil and was much more careful with the hot break, no boilover. I boiled for 5 minutes and then dunked in the immersion chiller and boiled for another 5 minutes. I then cut the heat and turned on the immersion chiller. Since I live in Dallas, I have a 25' in an ice water bath and a 50' in the kettle. All was going well and the temperature at the bottom decreased from 200 to 70 in about 10 minutes or so. Towards the end of the cooling i noticed one of the valves on the chiller was slowly dripping and a few (prob 10) drops of water got into the wort, 2nd oops. I then poured the 5 gallon batch into the fermentation bucket and back and forth. I shook the liquid yeast as per the directions and opened it, and it exploded (hopefully over the wort) oops #3. I think i got most of the yest into the bucket, i hope. I then plugged the stopper and inserted the airlock.
All in all, it was a humbling experience. The OG of the wort read 1.035, as I dont have anything in the recipe to compare it to, does that number in and of itself mean anything? This is my first brew and I dont know what to compare it to, but the wort tastes pretty good. Now its just a waiting game...
