Shoes

I dreamt that my apartment was even swankier than it is in real life. The swanky apartment in my dream was about three times the size of my apartment in real life. It had a lot of secret rooms and interesting spaces. There were three or four phones located throughout the apartment that were connected to my buzzer. One was in the master bathroom, and I thought it was cool that I could buzz someone in while being "occupied."

There was also a closet full of old and ugly shoes, most of which I would never wear in real life, partly because they were men's shoes. It was as though the shoes belonged to men I knew or had known at some point in my life, and somehow they accumulated in my closet throughout my lifetime. When I discovered the closet full of old and ugly shoes, I made a mental note just to throw the shoes out.

But in the dream, I was in the middle of my housewarming party, so I couldn't throw the shoes out then. I had invited a lot of different people. X (straight, non-gross guy) came with his friends. Although they weren't particularly rude, they mostly ignored me and made themselves at home in my swanky apartment. It was disappointing that I didn't get to talk to X, or to anyone I knew, for that matter.

Some people wanted drinks, and I dug around in my cabinets for four similarly-sized small shot-sized, wine-glass-shaped glasses. (I don't even have tiny wine glasses like that.) In the dream, I felt that I needed those particular glasses to serve whatever drink I was serving. But I couldn't find them, and had to make do with the smallest glasses I did have. I began washing the ones that I found, but the party guests became impatient and grabbed their own glasses, made their own drinks, and then went to my living room to have a drink with other people while continuing to ignore me.

So after a while I ignored them and went to my closet full of old and ugly shoes, and began the process of throwing them out.
