$2000 and/or a year in jail.
You're just now getting around to figuring out what you should do? You should get a lawyer or deal with the consequences. We can't tell you what to plead without knowing the details. If all else fails, plead not gulty and ask for a chance to obtain counsel. If you are truly indigent and unable (rather than merely unwilling) to pay for counsel, then ask for a public defender

The judge may be having a bad day or may believe that the maximum sentence will be more beneficial to you.
