Red face Update.. won't start now! ideas?

Well, this got worse in a hurry. 2 days ago it would die on occasion and start back up fine in 10-15 minutes. Now it won't start period. After it died last night, I tried to start it and it "idled" at 200-250 rpm. Luckily I was only a block from home because I pushed it back. This morning I go out and it will crank but nothing fires AT ALL.

I need help tracking this down. Is there a way for me to check diagnostic codes or test the fuel pump/pressure? Should I get a pressure gauge to go on the end of the fuel rail? Can I test the relays with a test light?

Ok, I went out after someone suggested the DME relay and I jumped the connections with 2 paper clips.. boom. She ran right away...

Thanks much for the suggestions...
