Power Leak?

So I don't know what happened. but i drove my car for about a week. let it sit, and a week later the battery was dead. jumped it and let it run and took it around the block. had to park it on the street for 2 days, went to start it today and it was dead again. don't know what happened, but sometimes the ignition switch wont do anything until i move some of the wires around behind the dash. is there a chance there could be a short right there or something. I don't know where to start or anything.
