Get an alignment (slight drift to the right). Also, were you running the A/C before you noticed your MPG drop and are now running it?

Yep, A/C has been running the whole time. I'm a wuss when it comes to heat.

I just noticed the drift for the first time the other day...I thought maybe the road was angled (common around here) but on my drive to the store it did it again. I'm kind of ticked that the car needs an alignment at 3,300 miles. I haven't had a new car before...is that normal?
Normal, no; possible, yes. If you have really rough roads or hit a pot hole you could have thrown the alignment out. However, a slight pull shouldn't drop your fuel economy that much.

Even the LS will perform better on premium gas. I did a blind test on Penguin LS and my son complained about the loss of power. He didn't know I had switched the car to 87 from 91. Switching back to 91 and the car was much happier.

npaggett, have them check for leaks in your fuel system. We had a member last year who actually had a leak in his fuel system.
