Default '92 Civic VX electrical and battery problems

My cars been having a shitload of electrical problems.
The headlights, taillights, and signals are all whacked.
Right headlight wont work, my right signal stayed on then randomly
fixed itself.
My ignition fuse keeps on blowing also. My battery fuse blew once.
One day I left my headlights killing my battery.
It kept on dying after that.
At first I thought the battery just couldn't hold charge, but I traded
batteries with my friend and it worked fine in his car and his
battery that I put in my car died.
After this I figured it was my alternator, so i took the alternator
off and a spare alternator I had to schucks, but they both tested out
good. I put the spare alternator back in just incase.
So now I'm figuring it's a short some where or the problem is
deriving from the ignition somewhere because it is sort of hanging
right now, being that i bought it from my friend who popped it because
his mom took his key; don't ask...
I went to go to work in the morning today and it had a weak start, so
I switched the battery to the one I've been charging and it started
doing something crazy... The temperature gauge went all the way up
and the fan seemed to be blowing louder than usual. I ended up just
taking my moms car to work. When I got back and went to go check it
out it was still doing the same thing. So I went to check the fuses.
They were all good. I wiggled the cable that brings power to the
starter and it sparked... My car won't start. I was wondering if
Anyone knew what the hell is wrong with my car or where I could go
about trouble shooting. Thank you in advance...
