Meep. I've lost 2. Both times I was on the highway to the Cape, before symptoms became clear. Slow windows, weird behaviour. I remember driving home, and slowly losing EVERYTHING in my car, due to power issues. When I lost ABS, THAT'S when I gave in and pulled over. D had to come get me in Hanover, and I had to borrow my sister's car in the morning to go call AAA, to tow it to Saturn.
They're not cheap, I remember $200 plus. But, that's it and it's nothing you did, BUT it will happen again, I'm afraid. THey can take care of it pretty quick, but it being Friday you might need to tear over there to get it, unless you manage to get it tomorrow.
*BIG hugs* it's a scary thing. I'm glad you weren't driving.
