Clutch gets stuck and cant shift...

This has happened a while ago and mysteriously disappeared fror about 5 months, but it just happened again. I was driving normally, not heavy footed, and i was shifting to 3rd. I pressed the clutch but it wouldnt let me change gears, so i tried just going into 4th and 5th and back th second but it was like the shift gate was there and the clutch was to the floor the whole time. then i pumped the clutch and and after 5 pumps or so, i could shift again. anyone know what the deal is? I changed the tranny oil just about 10k miles ago, so i think that should be fine. Although lately shifting seems a little harder and the clutch shift point is lower since i got the car. Time for a new Clutch? im almost positive mine is really warn down, but could that have caused me not being able to shift gears? If it is time for a new clutch, know where to get em? thanks
