Just a wild untested idea typed right into the email:

local moveID
local barState = "in"

on initBarPos
   put empty into moveID
   put "in" into barState
   move me to 668,241
end initBarPos

on slideOut
   if barState = "in"
     move me to 580,241 in .2 seconds without waiting
     put "out" into barState
   end if
end slideOut

on slideIn
   if barState = "out"
     move me to 668,241 in .2 seconds without waiting
     "put "in" into barState
   end if
end slideIn

on mouseWithin
    slideOut
    cancel moveID
    send "slideOut" to me in .5 seconds
    put the result into moveID
end mouseWithin
