So, extra sleepy this morning at 4 am.. about to get ready for work, yawning and scratching my butt..
I flip the switch to turn on my ceiling light.. and what does it do? it explodes! It popped and cracked light a firework!! I quickly snapped the switch off and grab my fire extinquisher (you DO have one in your home, right?)
Luckily, I didn't need to use it because the popping and light show stopped when I turned the switch off. I took down the light fixture.. it looks like its the fixture itself and not the wiring. My parents gave this to me when they took it down in their home.. Man the smoke stinks too
I will have to call maintenance when I get to my other job and see if they can come at lunch to replace the old, ugly 60's fixture that was original with the apartment.
But holy smokes! I am now wide awake and shaking!! Thank goodness I put my hearing aid in this morning to hear it!
