I just came home in a cab

because my brakes failed tonight--although fortunately I was in someone's driveway when it happened, and I was able to shift gears quickly, since my brake pedal was on the floor with nothing working. I'm really glad it didn't happen when I was out on the road, especially during rush hour or anything. Now the question becomes when I can fix it; I might be able to swing it at the end of the month and be late on my rent, or it may be a couple of weeks after that. I figure it'll be $400-$500. Gack.
