Sudden Battery drain - Ignition Switch?

OK, two months ago, middle of a hot day I had been driving around alot, stopped at Sears, came out and battery was dead. When I tried to start it the alarm chirped on and on until I pulled the CLS fuse.
Today, it's been raining for two days and car has not been started since Friday afternoon. I went out to start and it was D-E-A-D, but alarm chirped like last time. I hooked up battery charger and alarm went off and I couldn't stop it. So I pulled a fuse and re-hooked up charger. What also happened was this: the hazard warning lights began flashing (without the switch being touched). They turn off over time but I do not know why. When I get in to try starting again, the hazards start up when I turn the key and the car doesn't even turn over. If I wait for the hazards to stop and turn the key it will try to start but it's not charged enough to start yet.
What's up! Ground problems, ignition switch or what else?
Thanks.
