Default Indash brake light on while driving

Like the title says the brake light in my guage cluster is on as if I'm riding around with my handbrake up.

I would think that there's a bad switch somewhere, a fuse, or the fact that my brake fluid is in the middle of the resevour(sp?)

Also when I start my car it idles fine but after it gets a lil warm the idle jumps between 1 and 2.5rpm.

hints/suggestions

The only thing that will cause that light to come on is in the emergency brake circuitry. Check the switch on your hand brake, it might just be seized with the contacts in the closed position. Cold weather does weird things. That idling problem can be a lot of things. Check the spark plugs to start with.
