You may need a factory reset as it sounds like something may have gotten borked with the update.

Have you tried doing a factory reset?

Hello dgrimm25!
Nobody wants to endure the aggravation of a phone rebooting, no matter how often it does. I would like to help.
Have you tried the hard reset, just as suggested by PJNC284 and crshinn? I'm confident that will resolve the issue with the rebooting of your device. Please share so we can provide a fix for others that are experiencing the same problem.

Thanks for the replies everyone. The problem has apparently gone away and I haven't had any reboots this week. I didn't take any action. It just cleared up.
A couple of issues have come up but also have been resolved.
The update turned off, for inexplacble reasons, the instand photo upload to Google +. This problem was resolved by clearing out all the data FOR GOOGLE + ONLY on the phone, which also erases login info to Google +, and starting over. Instand upload worked fine after logging back in.
Note that Instant Upload craps out if your local connection has two bars or less. You can recover later by selecting the photo from Gallery and sharing its via Picassa.
The update altered some of my notification sounds with a new default profile for Sounds. Editing the notifications for each service, e.g., instand message, and for each email account, restored my preferences.
The handoff betwen 4G and 3G service areas is much more reliable and that includes going back up to 4G service as soon as I reach an area that has it.
NB: Verizon's tower coverage in each city where it has 4G service is as they say, "highly variable," and is not consistent in terms of staying on 4G even in 4G service areas. I would add that 4G is more sensitive to interference inside buildings than 3G. If you are in a structure, and need 4G, step outside.
I am wondering if part of the instability is there just are not as many 4G antennas placed yet. A town may have 4G but is it placed on every tower in that town??? I am thinking maybe not. So if there are 3 3G arrays set up pointing different directions and only one 4G array pointing in one direction...... See my point?
I am very tired (worked 3rd shift) and cant express myself well right now.
