My car has a rather large short in it somewhere. I'm trying to learn more about cars. Could someone help get me started in the right direction as far as troubleshooting an electrical short strong enough to drain the battery in a matter of a few days?

How much do you know already about electrical theory? That has become one of the most important areas of being a mechanic. To get you started on finding a drain on the battery
