The next time it doesnt start, try pumping the gas pedal. Sounds like your IAB/IAC (idle air bypass valve/idle air control valve) is starting to go out on ya.

This valve opens to let air in to idle the car when the pedal is not depressed.

MAF could be the problem. Try cleaning it, if that doesn't work see if someone will let you swap theirs in to see if that clears up the issue.
