Default DA shock problems

wow. it figures all this **** happens on my birthday ok, to start off, this morning my car wouldnt start. after letting it sit for about 2 hours it started and ran just fine. then, when i got home, i popped the hood to see why i smelled gas. i forgot to put the washer back on the small bolt on top of the fuel filter

so after i quickly fix that, i drop the hood...but it doesnt latch, or even come all the way down! so i pick it up, look around, and my right front shock is sticking out about 3 inches higher than its supposed to!!!! wtf? i couldnt believe it! it must have happened while the hood was popped? otherwise i wouldve heard the hood hit it and seen the dent in the hood.

the car is riding on skunk2 springs and tokico blue struts. i did it 2 weeks ago on labor day, and now all of a sudden this happens im about to go to my aunts house to have dinner celebrating perhaps the worst birthday i have ever had
