I think it's your starter relay. I had a similar effect to this. It wouldn't start (I drive a 5-speed though.) at first, not even turn over. I'd rock it back in forth in gear (yet again, go 5-speed) and it'd turn over.

That'd be a lot easier fix! My father tends to think the selinoid is going out. We're gonna do some checks this evening and see what's up with it.

Got into my Jeep this morning and it started right up as always. Got to the gas station, turned Jeep off and filled her up. Got back in and when I went to start it nothing happened. The radio and dash lights came on but it would not crank. I tried a few more times and got the same result 
. I sat there a few minutes trying to figure it out and make sure I wasn't going crazy. I tried again and it started right up like nothing was wrong.
