you're doing just fine. keep the bulb, and return the metal dome for a wire caging like this one. according to the item listing, the socket can work with any bulb up to 250 W. i just might be changing out my dome for this wire one based on @Silverdreams information.

you're almost there!
okay.... thanks for all the help guys... I'm just freaking out now. If I was old enough to drive it wouldn't be so much of a problem, but my dad is the one who has to take me to run all of these errands... Hopefully he doesn't get too upset with me. I will see what I can do. Thanks again
