Car chooses when to run

Today my car stalled out on me. It actually has been happening a lot lately. Anyways When it stalled out today I couldnt even get it to come back on.

I could not hear my fuel pump prime either. The fuel pump is brand new.
I then hot wired the fuel puimp to get fuel pressure. Still the car would not start. I honestly thought my computer was done. I got it towed back home and went to work

When i came back from work i was going to test it for spark. When i was going to crank it I heard the pump prime. I go to start it and it starts.

This is where I am confused.. I checked for power going to the fuel pump when i went to prime it. I got nothing.

Could this be my computer going?? i kno the fuel pump relay wire was not getting any power right out of the computer because I took the signal from there
