Default I think i burned the hell out of my clutch lol

So I had a **** load of boxes in my car, my girlfriend was sitting next to me trying to hold her door shut cause it wouldnt close. I was holding a box on my damn shoulder, it was just terrible. like TERRIBLE. Anyways, I was in 3rd gear at a light stopped and I just said **** it and started going in 3rd just trying to push through it. Mistake. I got going and next thing i know, the car smells like I just sat there and spun the tires for a half an hour. REAL bad. wtf. it smelled horrible for a good hour and now nothing, no problems, its not slipping or anything. How much time do you think I just cut off the life of my clutch?
