im kind of hoping its just a bad battery(since i killed it about a week ago), and its just not keeping the charge well overnight.

it's not your battery.
gathering from your little "experiment", the "problem" is that overnight, or any extended period, the gasoline slowly creeps out of the fuel lines and back into the tank. on the first start of the day, you're the type that just starts cranking the motor instead of turning the key to "on" and waiting a couple seconds for the fuel system to pressurise for a proper start.
read your owners manual.
