Default MAJOR problem, please help!

I didnt know where else to put this so here it is:

I was driving around town just this afternoon, and all was well, as usual. Then i got into a part of town that is very strict on the speed limit - i looked down, and my dash is blank.... everything is burried, as if the car were off... Well, i'm glad i didnt pull over and shut the car off til i got home (only another mile or so) b/c now the car won't start. WTF is going on???? One thing i noticed is that if you turn the headlights on, the left turn signal stays stuck on (no blinking)

WHAT DO I DO????? All the electronics work... radio works, lights work, right turn signal works... WHen i try to start the car, all goes blank and it doesnt even try to do anything.
