Clutch issues

So bad news guys . . on my way home from work yesterday (In stop and go traffic) my clutch started to be soft then all the sudden would not engage nor disengage. . . My clutch is only 2500 Miles old. . . When the car cools down it works just fine. . . This ruins all hopes of going to vegas unless I can get it fixed tonight, Im going to bleed the Clutch release thing and see if the helps

How old is your fluid? Have you checked your levels?
