I was wearing my black shoes and stepped on coals. some were still hot and they burned through my shoes to my toes. I screamed for help but the person who i was with did not help me, he just looked at me, he did not know it was serious. i think it was my father. i kept screaming, and i started throwing things in a rage to show it was serious. i tried to throw furniture threw a window. i think i did this twice, but none of the windows broke. i tried to find a bathroom to put my foot in the toilet or in the sink. all the doors i opened were bedrooms. we were in a house, but i think the inside was outside. there were a bunch of doors, maybe at least 6 or 7 or 8, i can't remember. i finally found the bathroom, my foot wasn't hurting so much, i put my foot in the sink and turned the water on. my shoe came off and i wasn't wearing any socks. well, i was, but it slipped right off w/ the shoe in the water. i figure it was b/c of the coals or something. i think there were two girls standing next to the faucet looking at me. i thought that they probably thought it was gross. then i said something to ease the awkwardness, i think.

before this i remember, in the outside part of where we were. i think my dad jumped over fences. there was a cordoned off area. he hopped a fence. i was a little worried because he was old and he would hurt himself getting over it. he didn't. when he jumped it looked like he would hurt his feet or something, but it didn't. i was also worried that there was something in there, like animals or something, b/c why else would there be a fence. so i was hoping he would hurry. i gathered some plants, wrapped them up in small bundles, almost like a bundle of mint, and threw them over to me. he threw over cinnamon. he threw over some flowers. and some other things. and he also either threw over or handed me gold. it was powdered gold. i didn't know where to put it, so i just smeared it across a page in the book i was reading. i remember wondering if i'd still be able to see the words on the page. behind the fence there were lots of rocks, it reminded me of the desert. i remember after he gave me the gold i wanted to find some more. i can't remember if i either climbed over, or if i found some on the outside of the fence.

i also remember looking at something official that had my dad's name... like a business card or something. but the act of looking at it and seeing and making a recognition, was important, b/c it created an acknowledgment or ah, "oh ok yes i see"
