Default HELP!!! Car not starting!

I was working on the headlights in my car tonight and let the battery die on me. I jumped it off my wife's jeep and it started fine, but after I turned it off, i tried starting it back up and NOTHING! No clicking or nothing, lights still work, AC turns on, fuel pump cuts on, but Nothing in the ignition. Is there a fuse I may have blown? I need to know as I am possibly selling it tomorrow!

This most likely has nothing to do with what is wrong at all but is worth a try... but the ONLY time that I have ever had my car not even click was when i accidently triggered the security system... Try manually locking and unlocking the car and then starting it up. I killed my battery while working on the stereo and then guess i did something funny with the remote so i was having a severe WTF moment when the car wouldnt start. but yea try that...maybe...good luck
