When ever I open my firefox now it just opens to the homepage. It is set to open last session and remember my history.

See if it is better in Firefox 33, which was released yesterday

I figured it out shortly after this, all it took is looking in the task manager's processes tab. Firefox even though was closed as an application was still open as a process (cause I guess it crashed or something?).

when I closed the firefox process too it acted like everything since the problem started didn't happen and instead happily opened the first lost session's tabs.

Im sorry, I cant supply more about what I did to cause this bug in the first place, but I dont remember what I was doing when it first started or even how I closed firefox.
