Twice is one time too many. Don't drive the car!

Look for a stuck caliper... causing the brake fluid to boil. If all of the pistons compressed easily when you put new pads in, I would look at the MC being the problem if the pedal goes to the floor.

A bad booster will cause the pedal to be stiff, but you'll still have brakes (it'll just be harder to engage them).
