More recently, I had a dream where this same person hosted a birthday party, and all the guests were required to select a pair of new shoes from a big pile to wear to the party. Oddly enough, guests were required to crawl through a small dark tunnel, which was lit by a man wearing a Renaissance costume and holding a candle, in order to arrive at the party. (This is wear the shoes were waiting.) I recall selecting a pair of shiny red patent leather shoes to wear. Although everyone is having a great time, the party abruptly ends as the hostess begins thanking everyone for attending. And, all guests must leave the shoes they have worn before they go. It turns out they are not a gift, but that the hostess wanted us to "wear her shoes" for the event. I am sad that I cannot keep the shoes. Also, I have the feeling that she never even wanted to have this party and wants it to be over quickly. I am also dreading having to go back through the dark tunnel. I am usually not one to remember my dreams, but this one was very strange and vivid!
