First off, deep breaths.

Second. your issue is that you are using HTML5 elements and IE8 and lower can’t recognize them so it’s screwing up.

At the following to the inside of your head tag and you should be good to go.

This uses an IE Only Stylesheet (which you can read about here) and an “HTML5 Shiv” which is some javascript that allows IE to read HTML5 elements.
