Update: After jumping it Sunday afternoon and driving it about 20 miles, I parked it for the evening. It was off for 12 hrs. I woke this morning and got in. She fired right up. I drove back to my house and took my other car to work. When I get home I'll see if it's still good.
PS: The connections aren't even dirty. No corrosion.

I checked it once I got home. No go. Battery read 12.5. Starter or cable next.

I have the exact same issue occasionally ..... turn the key and nothing..not a sound or movement other than the sound of the key turning in the ignition...it NEVER happens on a cold start...only when the engine is warm.....I replaced the easy clutch and ignition switches with no change.....it's never left me ... always starts after a few tries ...never more than about 10



it will start right up as though I was making it up :
