Strange problems

When I start my car, I have a variety of weird problems. First, my headlights. They are flip up headlights, but they won't flip up until I get going, or until the RPMs are much higher than idle. Second, my speakers. The radio will come on, but no sound from the speakers until I have high RPMs, and they won't stay on unless I keep high RPMs. Third, my windshield wipers. Same problem. If it's raining in the dark and I need to listen to the news on the radio? It cannot run them all at the same time. Usually it will blow the fuse on my windshield wipers and shut my radio off. Any ideas? Thanks.
