Ok, THIS is why I don't like breadboarding. Total loss of momentum. But to be fair, it has allowed me to replace some components easily. I previously ordered the MC14099 Addressable Latch which arrived today (very quick shipping!), but I am still waiting on the MC14011 NAND gates that will be my "glue logic."
In the meantime, I wired up the switch on the robot chassis and attached the 9V battery terminal more permanently. Along with the addition of some velcro, the battery should stay put now. I am using the unused side terminals on the DPST switch as solder points for my ground and 5V... I hope that isn't a dumb decision but I can't see how they would ever short.
