"Yesterday, when I got it home and got the plugs out, they smelled like gas. And when i ran it today it seemed a bit rich."

Sounds to me like it could be your MAF dying or could use a cleaning.

Drop by the auto parts store and pick up a can of MAF cleaner. Remove the sensor from the airbox (there are 2 T25 screws at the back) and spray the element inside with the cleaner. Let it dry for an hour or two and reconnect it.
