Don't you WANT a higher "system" usage than anything else? That means apps aren't sucking much battery.
I mean, if everything else is using so little battery (WiFi, screen, apps) what is left for the remaining percentage besides the system?

Not really.
I had this happen yesterday. It wasn't that the others were using so little power. It was that the power used by everything else was dwarfed by the power used by Android System. In just under two hours my phone had dropped to 85%. When I looked I saw that Android System had used 45% of that. The phone was not sleeping even when the screen was off. I could also see that the Stay Awake time of Android system was nearly 100% of the time I had been on battery. Something in the Android System was stuck in a wake lock.
I tried to determine what the process was that was hung up but I was unable to do so.
I rebooted the phone and the wake lock went away.

What the heck killed my battery? This is with the extended battery and I started from a full charge after flashing a new rom and clearing battery stats..
I turned off all connections, and turned off sync.. Sat the phone down and went to bed after about an hour of web surfing.. I went to bed with 70% left and woke up 6 hours later with 37%...

Its all in the last screenshot. Keep awake time is huge. That's the bug if I had to guess.

That keep awake time is normal, nothing strange there...
Your story of browseing for an hour then going to sleep for 6 hours doesnt match your batteries' graph.
According to your story, there should have been a sharp decline from browsing web since the screen would be sucking the power, then a very slight decline from being idle, something was either running in the background (facebook maybe, it has a high % of usage) who knows?
Yeah idk.. If you look at when wifi was on that was when I was browsing.. Then after that there is a steep decline which doesn't make sense to me.. I don't think it was Facebook or anything because all data/sync was off...
I know it takes a day or two for a new rom to settle in but I certainly wouldn't think it would have that large of an impact

I read somewhere that there is/was a bug where after a reboot Google talk or maybe google+ launches the camera in the background which keeps running until you manually open the camera app and close it. I believe I read it some where on Franco's kernel post. Not sure if the bug is still there and if it's the culprit here, but might be worth investigating.
So I charge my phone all night, take it off the charger to go to work at 6am by 3pm my battery is at about 8 percent. Here is where it gets funny, if I turn the phone off then back on I have about 59%. How does that happen

Sorcery. That's how.
I'm guessing the reason your battery gets drained so quickly is because of the poor network coverage.
Could you also provide a screenshot of the apps/programs/hardware that have drained your battery? By that I mean the screen you see after hitting battery under settings.
The fact that it goes up so much after a reboot is very weird indeed. It usually happens the other way around with mine, the battery level drops about 15% for me after a reboot, which I also find weird.
I have had the same expierence with my phone as well. Dont understand it either.
I suggest you use a battery calibration app or s-off/root and install Clockwork Mod recovery to clear your battery stats and run a few cycles. Your phone doesn't know where full is and can't detect it as well as we'd like.

I think you need a battery calibration. Before i calibrated mine would drop 10-15% sometimes but now it is good. I would also add expect a small margin of error if you were using your phone heavily and it is warm/hot and you reboot. Some people report, myself included, that you might see a slight spike after your phone cools down.

Has anyone else had this issue of a huge battery drop when they restart their phone?

It happens every now and then. What did you last change on your phone before the battery drop?
I just had one a couple days ago when switching to Calkulin's 1.1 ICS...after that drop, I recharged that night and the next day got 13 hrs or so with 54% battery still remaining. I think that, if you change your rom and then the drop happens after your next reboot, it just means that the original battery percentage was off and it's now corrected...
In short, I think it's nothing to worry about unless it's happening frequently.
my phone is stock and has been for quite some time. I like to power down sometimes to save battery or to not be distracted.

OP this seems to be a known issue... I asked a question along the same lines a couple of weeks ago, and had a quite a few responses. Here ya go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520830
The only time this ever happened to me was when my phone would reboot on its own due to a system crash but when I would reboot it again manually the battery stats would be back to what they were maybe 1-2% less.
It happens sometimes. I believe it has something to do with the Maxim fuel gauge chip in SGS2 phones. Sometimes reboots throws the battery stats off, but your phone doesn't actually lose that much charge. I've actually seen my battery % climb after a reboot. Wiping battery stats usually fixes the issue, as does charging to full of course.
I'm wondering why this is happening, I've only made like two phone calls today, is this normal cuz i don't remember ever seeing phone draining that much battery.

you were talking with screen on... so 2 hours of screen time with 1:50 of phone time is kind of normal.

No I was not talking at all, i made two quick phone calls and that's it, and phone had never showed up using that much battery. Anyway I flashed darkside cache wipe and that seemed to fix it

Hows your reception? I know if i dont turn on airplane mode while at work "Phone" shows up just like yours does. I realized its cause i would constantly go in and out of service and when im out of service it would stay awake and never sleep. Plus at my dads house, HSPA is really weak, so i either must force 2G or 3G in order for my "Phone" to stop chewing up battery.
My OS is eating my battery up. What could cause this?

If you pay attention to your battery life, you'll notice that the OS is usually the second most battery consuming process (well it almost always is for me). That means that if your phone in your pocket for most of the day, then it makes sense for the OS to take up most of the battery life as the screen isn't on much. This was the case for me today where I had less than 1 hour of screen time on my phone so the battery consumption by the OS was higher.
----------------------------------------------------------
I noticed that there is another battery life for the OS, so I guess the Android System is things like the keyboard, nfc, etc. but the above still applies. Check the screen time and you should notice that it's pretty low.

Thank you. I didn't know if it was a software issue because usually, and ordinary day like today, the screen always took the most %
