start off by making sure all of your ground wires are making good connection. then if you have a multimeter, check the output of your alternator.

Well, i took it to autozone and had them test the battery/alternator with their tester and they said the alternator was only charging at 12v instead of the 13-14v it should be at. 2 days before that, i took the alternator up to them(out of the car) and they tested it and they said it worked like a champ, so i'm a little confused...The haynes book said that it could have something to do with anything that draws power, like headlights or fuel system and stuff like that. AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, if i didnt shave my head, i'd start pulling out my friggin hair
anybody else??????????????????

if your alternator checked out ok, then all thats left is the connection at your fusebox or the wire harness itself.. if you have a mutimeter check for continuity for all the wires going to your alternator. If you had a parasitic draw your battery would most likely be drained overnight. But it wouldnt hurt to do a parasitic draw test while your at it, which also requires a mutimeter.
