Don't take it to a regular mechanic, unless he has an alignment machine. Most alignment shops will charge about $100 or less and they are quick. Call a good one in your area and see if they can do it sooner.

I called a local Mom&Pop repair shop and asked them where to take my car.

If it pulls real hard, don't drive it. If it just kind of veers to the right when you let your hands off the wheel, then I would say drive it but be careful and keep the speed down.

What can you do to fix it? Well, not much. You could loosen the bolts and try to get the strut back to its original position, but that will be very hard if you didn't scribe it before the strut was removed the first time.
