Check to make sure you are getting constant power to the compressor clutch. If you are the electro magnet is going out. You can replace just that part. If it is not check the freon level if it is low it can cause the compressor to turn on and off. Once it is low enough it will not come on at all.

I'll check, but how do I go about doing that? Also, I'll see if I can get it in to my mechanic to check the freon level. -
You can put a test light or meter on the wire. Check the freon level first. A quick way to check it would be to get a small can of R-134a that has a gage on it. start the car, turn the AC on and hook up the can and see if it is in the green arc on the gage. You can over fill a system so more is not always better. I don't know what the correct pressure is but usually if your within the full arc on the can you should be good. If it is low you have a leak. You can add some so you have cold air till you get it to a shop.
