04 AT Rx-8 dosn't turn over

This just started happening last night before going to work. I would turn the key into the ignition and nothing would happen. Light's doesn't turn on or anything. The Key was not pop opening the trunk and nothing in the car was pop opening too. Such as, the trunk or hood.
After 5min. it started up, but on the dash board it said my DSC was off. And my wheel traction said I would slide (The pic of a back side of a car and wheels going side to side) I would press my DSC, and it did not turn on or off. Also, everything would reset. The Radio Cloak, Radio, MPG-B (I think that's what it's called, It's if you reset and see how far your car travels w/out filling it up)
Finally I got to work and shut off my car. and after work I tried turning the car again and the same thing happened. Same thing as b4.

I asked a few ppl. who knew about cars and they said it's an Alarm problem. Is this true? Or is this something different. I'm bringing it to the shop. But I'd still like to know.

sounds like your battery connections are loose, i would say your battery is dead but you were able to turn your car on
