"When I looked at where the belt went, one of the pulleys that comes right off of the engine was kind of wobbling so my first guess would be because of that."

and you'd be exactly right. whatever that pulley is, if it is wobbly, then the bearing in it are beyond shot. as a result, there will be TONS of friction, which will make it hard for the belt to turn it, which in turn will wear out the belt prematurely.

find out what that pulley is and get it replaced. while you are at it, check every other pulley that the belt that broke touches, just to make sure nothing else is wrong.
