From what I've been able to figure out, the SLU is only polled during startup (and possibly shutdown) so it shouldn't be a drain when the car is off. But I'm not 100% sure about this.
I suspect a bad/weak battery (check the electrolyte level) or a parasitic load (have you added anything, eg, radio, that might be pulling a load when the car is off?).

I pulled my fuse some time back and have had no problems.
Yea I only have this delayed start AFTER I pulled fuse. I will put it back on and see if that happens again.

And SouthArk, yes I do have lots of stuff connected to the battery, like capacitor and LoJack... That's why my battery doesn't last long if I don't drive the car. And plus the week I pulled fuse was super cold. So that one time incident could just be random.
