It might be as simple as moving the steering wheel. If you park with the front wheels turned, the caster keeps the wheel tight against the lock mechanism. Happens to me regularly.

This one cracks me up!!! I did the exact same thing when I got my Boxter. I also had a hard time remembering that I had to turn the key completely off if for some reason it didn't start on the first try before you can try it again.
