Headlights not coming on

Ok i noticed tonight my lights were really dim so I turn on my high beams and nothing. I realized its just my DRL's which are on with my park lights. All the lights on the dash are lit and my turn signals work but when i turn the light switch to the on position for headlights they do not get brighter and the Bright lights dont come on. I have a 2000 4Runner.

Any ideas--I didnt think it was the bulbs since the DRL's are still on adn it was too dark for me to check fuses but if it was a fuse wouldnt the DRL's be out also and if it was the switch wouldnt that prevent the park lights from turning on/

I had to work at a different location than where i parked my truck today but i do know that there is a separate fuse for each headlight so I think its unlikely that both went out at the same time. I was told by a friend that it may most likely be the Switch itself. It still turns on the park lights though.

Is the switch typically a common thing to go out on 3rd gens?
Any recommendations of where to get one at?
 
Ok I went out during lunch to check my lights. I checked the first headlight fuse under the hood and it was fine. So i checked my lights and they were working fine, high's and low's. I checked all the other fuses for lights and they were fine also.

Not sure what it was but its odd cause they didnt work onthe drive in this morning either.
