Let there be light! This little light in the shower makes a huge difference. Without it, the shower feels a bit like a cave.
Our apartment has this unfortunate paint problem, wherein the last tenants had painted every. single. surface a different, vibrant color. When they moved out, the managers repainted everything this neutral almost-white, and used as many coats as it took to cover up the rainbow. As a result, many doors and cabinets don't really close as they should, and some things, such as the light fixture in the shower, are painted shut.
Because of that, it was a much bigger ordeal when the light bulb finally, after two years, burned out. Believe it or not, we actually had to have an electrician come to replace it. I mean, !!! Nuts. We'd only asked the new managers because of the fact the fixture was entirely painted shut, but apparently shower light fixtures are very delicate things. He scheduled the electrician, and now we have light! Lovely.
Also, let me not forget: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EMILY!!! Miss you!
