Unhappy no, no, NO!

Well, driving home from work on Wed, my torque converter lockup problem got more complicated. Driving at about 75 with cruise on, the transmission seemed to completely disengage and just coast. Then, it re-engaged really harshly. It was like it wanted to lockup, but once it did it would just completely disengage as if it were in neutral. Then it would try to lockup again, then it would disengage completely. Engine would still run, no odd revs, just lots of engaging and disengaging. So, I was approaching a stop sign and I was slowing down and the transmission was jerking really bad, so I put it in "3" to lock it up. When I came to a stop, the engine died. Wouldn't start again until I turned it completely off and restarted. So, I started driving again and it didn't act up at all up to 75 MPH. Passed a truck going about 40, and as I was passing it started to do the same thing. Seems to only happen at 65+ MPH. What's going on. Is my tranny dieing?
