Car Trouble

My brakes started squeaking/grinding last night. I was praying that it was just an after effect of the rain or something but no...they sounded worse this morning. I was driving to work thinking, oh my goodness what in the world is happening to my car. I dropped off my car to get it checked out and it turns out that my brake pads are worn and it's affecting the rotors. Oh the fun...not...but it's better that it happened before I got to Denver. Imagine..Stephanie in Denver..driving down the mountain...brakes fail...there goes Stephanie over the cliff...
