ghosts in the bathroom mirror light

[jenny_fur]

Anyone who has been to the house and used the bathroom upstairs knows that one of the two lights on the mirror/medicine cabinet is burned out for the most part. Its been like that for awhile mainly because we have no idea how to change the bulb. All of the sudden a few or so days ago - the burned out light was on in full force and it stayed that

sounds like bad wiring or maybe the bulb isn't screwed in tight.
if it's not the latter, have it looked at by an electrician.

Forget about it

I'm coming over one of these days with some new lighting fixtures for your bathroom.
The spectral power distribution on those bulbs is so shitty that I look sickly in that lighting. I'm putting in some new, full spectrum lights in your bathroom.
Now, forget about those bulbs.

well we are working slowly but surely on having work done on the house... in the meantime I think I might have broken the garbage disposal

how cold is it in the bathroom? It could have been that you have a bad contact in the light fixture. The cold weat6her caused some amount of shifting bringing it just into contact. As the weather changed again the contact became intermittant which would explain the buzzing. If its a florescent then the buzzing could have been caused by the ballast slowly blowing out.

Its not that cold in there. we have a skylight, but its a small bathroom and its fairly warm all the time. we'll have it looked at when we have more housework done.

>>why all of the sudden did it start working again?<<

The dragons have awoken causing havoc, reawakening magic in the world once again. Oh wait, dammit, i keep gettting fiction and reality confused again... not that that's real difficult these days

if by dragons you mean cats then you are probably correct
