Electrical 200 1990

I have experienced an odd electrical issue in recent weeks. I can drive the car for several weeks without a problem, then for no apparent reason, the car will not start. I can jump start the car and it will run fine. Then it will happen again after a week or so, as if the battery is dead. I replaced the battery with a new Die Hard.
I have experienced several other syptoms as well. As I am driving the car, the radio will go off, the left turn signal cycles rapidly if I turn it on, the fan motor and window motors will not work, the overdrive will not work and the headlights dim. When I turn any of these on, the car almost stalls. I drove the car 70 miles from the airport late Tuesday night under these conditions. It was like the car was operating on 1/2 electrical power. Any thoughts?
