Wow man, drink something.

Your e brake cables should have adjusters to adjust the tension. First check to see if your cable is in fact in-tact.
Second, check the tension, to see if the aflicted side is too loose.

If loose, you can adjust (as long as it's not roo rusty)
Raise the rear of the car on jack stands, and keep adjusting untill the rear wheels cannot be spun by hand with the second click setting of the hand brake lever.
