Thumbs down car WONT starrrt

no its not the z, actually its a 98 malibu 3.1l. just got it back from the trans shop after it sat for maybe a month or so. today it ran 100% normal and put some miles on the give it a good run since its been sitting around.

so far . . .

- Battery is like new, has plenty of charge to start it

- Gas has sat long enough to really go bad, besides it was running til just now

turned it off for a few in my driveway, went to start it to move and all i get is the lights dim low, but no sounds from the motor, not even a "click" so maybe the starter took a dump?

also i found it weird that after i tried starting it i could get the shifter into neutral (its an automatic) until i slightly bumped it, now it goes through teh gears fine


so anyone have a clue?
