Finally got Photoshop!!!

I just got Photoshop CS5 Extended. I am super excited and VERY intimidated. Although I have used PC's for office type work, I get overwhelmed with the technical stuff and/or games so I am not sure how well I will do with this. I also do not want it to take over my photography as I have seen it do with some of my photographer friends. However, I am learning that I need to use it to improve my work. All of this to say, what is the best, easiest, and fastest way to learn? I know that there are tutorials and books. However, I do not want to waste time or money on things that are going to be either too advanced, complicated, or not effective. Since it seems many of you have already gone this route before, I would like your advice so as to save time, money, and effort. Thanks, Becca
