...automotive electrical wiring chart?

It could be either cruddy contacts in the ignition switch or a sticky solenoid. The solenoid is cheapest and easiest to replace, so you might try that first. The only way to tell for sure is to catch it not starting while somebody is holding a voltmeter on the ignition switch wire on the solenoid.
You could check the wire to the solenoid first. If it's loose or corroded it would be intermittent.

i got HID lights for my 2004 CTS. How to change?

It clearly is getting worse, and it is getting older and more used. Certainly you should be concerned. Sooner or later it is going to fail altogether, and like Murphy's Law, at the most inopportune time.
The issue is likely either the ignition switch or the starter.
It it not that big a deal, but it is the one thing necessary to drive your vehicle. If it doesn't start, even if it is brand new and won't start it isn't of any more value to you than a dead horse.
Shouldn't be much more than $250.00 or so.
