/usr/share/doc/conky/ has no examples folder... so I am wondering if I messed up the install (I used sudo apt-get install conky) or if this was removed recently and where to get it from if that is the case.

Hi,
I don't know the answer to the missing folder question, because I'm not using conky, but I can tell you that there is a huge forum thread here giving screenshots and configurations of conky that you can use as examples. My only possible advice to your question is if you can run conky ok, then you shouldn't need a reinstall. You can reinstall conky any time you like though.
Here's the thread:

The config that comes with conky is inOriginally Posted by CJN
In terminalCode:/etc/conky/conky.confwill load ~/.conkyrcCode:conky
or if you don't have a .conkyrc it will load /etc/conky/conky.conf
will load the conky config you specify.Code:conky -c /path/to/your/conkyconfig
You are better off downloading conky-all through synaptic
because it is a full conky with most compile options enabled.
This is a good guide to setting up conky:
