Angry Electrical Problem- 97 Ranger

Anyone else have electrical problems with a 97 Ranger?
My dome light likes to stay on after I shut off the truck, and now is staying on for hours whenever it goes on. I drive an hour back and forth to work and it just stays on for the entire commute. Usually stays on for between 1-3 hours. It used to happen only during cold weather, but now for for the first time it's happening in the summer. It has never drained my battery but is now getting very annoying, especially at night.

Any ideas?
