your car will sit there, and your battery may be drained depending on how long, how old it is, etc.

I just thought that if you dont keep parts with some electricity, it'll crap out?(Sorry for the extreme noobness)
no, but you'll need to reset the clock and radio stations.

What happens to the car in general if you just leave it sitting, but covered with a good car cover?
nothing, provided its a good, breatheable cover.

I left home and disconnected the battery terminals from the battery after I waxed the car, then covered it up and went to college. I'm planning to go back in a month or two, but it has been sitting for 2-3 months already. What are the consequences? What should I do to 'refresh' it other than drain/replace fluids?
you may need to charge the battery.
