"help" car wants to die?

ok i just hit 30k miles a few days ago, and i never had a problem with the car.

yesterday morning i was in a rush and jumped in my car without warming it up, the idle was at about 1500rpms or so "cars cold", so i go to tap the gas before releasing the clutch and the rpms just drop to about 600rpms and the wants to die so i try to save it and press the gas and instead of the rpms shooting up the car just die's, so it takes me a few seconds to start it back up but the car just was not idle right, so the car has 1/2 tank so i filled it up with new 93oct gas just incase it was bad gas??

so i go out today and same deal?? wtf is going on, bad sensor or something........any help would be greatly needed here thanks
