Default thumping brake pedal..

I'm new here ('99 civic), and unfortunatly don't know much about cars But if anyone could help, I'd greatly appreciate it! Just recently I was driving and noticed that there is a thumping feeling coming from the brake pedal when I press on it to stop. I never felt it before, and now it feels like a rolling thump every time I brake...(I was just on vacation and didn't use the car for a week, not sure if that has anything to do with it)

Does anyone know whats going on, and it is okay to drive like that for a few days until I can see a mechanic? Thanks!
