Help! No Lights!!

Hey guys, this stinks! I just got my truck running good again and today I was driving down the road, and noticed my turn signals didn't work! They'd click on and the arrow would just stay illuminated right, well I get home and realize no light whatsoever works on the back of my truck! The license plate lights dont work, the tail lights dont work, the reverse lights dont work, the brake lights dont work! I didnt touch anything, lol. I dont know what happened. I'm lucky I didnt get ran into on the beltway by one of those nutcase speed demon D.C. drivers..I know there is a trailer wiring harness back there or whatever, maybe it caused a problem somehow, since I dont have a trailer.. I checked most my fuses, but it was dark so maybe I missed something! I looked at the wiring in the back and it seems okay.. I dunno guys! I got a job interview in the morning I'm freakin' out please help!!!

A few times I've seen the harness plug come undone. Alot of trailer plugs have a inline adapter that you put in the harness, and people dont get them plugged back in good and eventually work their way apart.
