Q: Problem with crashing since update to Yosemite 10.10.2

I have a Macbook Pro (15inch, Mid 2009) that has been trucking along fine for years. I upgraded the RAM from 4GB to 8GB about a year ago, no issues on that front. I then updated the OS from Mavericks to Yosemite not to long ago and began to experience an unstoppable loop of crashing that would at most get me as far as to the desktop for a few minutes. I ran Recover HD and it told me my hard drive had a bad volume in it and that it was unrepairable, that I would have to reformat it completely, luckily I have a Time Machine backup of the day just before this began to happen. I figured at worst the hard drive was old and that I might as well take the opportunity to upgrade to an SSD. So I did just that, went from the stock 500GB Western Digital drive to a Intel 256 SSD, installation was no sweat. The process afterwards when installing a fresh clean OS was the painful part as I ran into another issue where "Essentials.pkg" error was preventing me from completing the reinstall of Mavericks/Yosemite, the problem as far as I could tell was that it supposedly did not like my aftermarket 8GB ram. Since I had no back up of my old Apple OEM Memory (misplaced it somewhere) I ended up having to borrow my friends Macbook Pro and hot swap his stock memory temporarily into my Macbook to just complete a fresh install of the OS. Luckily I was able to get everything back up and running and the SSD made my Macbook Pro incredibly fast, Time Machine worked flawlessly everything back to normal like it never happened.

Until today, Just a few days after this whole fiasco, I began to experience the same issue again. The symptoms would start with having Chrome loaded up and running, Chrome would begin to crash, unable to show a webpage no matter how many times I refreshed or went to another website, a minute or two later of this happening and then my OS would completely crash and it would give me that splash screen that your computer has been restarted unexpectedly to continue press any button etc...

I have the report listed below, this is the most recent crash report that just happened now, since I have no idea how to read it I was hoping for some help here to maybe figure out what exactly is going on. I don't have the crash reports from before the whole fiasco happened, I can only imagine it is the same in nature.
