Bent both my brakes somehow. What's the easiest way to fix them?

If they're just bent, remove them from the binding; this is a fairly simple procedure providing they're not a pivot binding, in which case, you'll have to remove the heel piece. Then just bend the break arms, you may have to heat them a little first or you might be able to do it with you hands.
