DOOR!?!?! PLEASE HELP!

I have a 1997 Camaro and this afternoon when I got to my car, the friggin door wouldnt close all the way, I had slam the door just for it to shut, the door only closes easily if the door is locked, But when I go to shut it while it is unlocked it has to be slammed. I am very worried. I tried to see if the latch was broke but it wasnt then I checked to see if the door latchy thingy(insaide of the dorr) and it wouldnt budge.! WTF is going on?

take the door panel off, oil the locking mechanism and the latch mechanism

Do you think that, that is the only thing wrong with it? :(

I dont know, but its a good place to start IMO

Personally I'd just weld the doors shut and enter in though the windows, like NASCAR or better yet, The Dukes of Hazard!

LMAO! Well it wasnt anything, i placed my bookbag in the back seat before I got into the car and when I noticed that my door wasnt all the way shut, I was driving, well the next day after coming on here and posting franticly, I later found out that a peice of plastic from my bookbag(it blended in perfectly) was on my weather striping and it was blocking my door unless I slammed it shut. Just another idiotic mistake.
