Cow Resurrection

Date: 11/13/2025

In this dream I seem to be on a ranch, there is an early part where we are being admired for something on the property, either art or mushrooms or a crop of some kind. Then there is a big party, the ranch fills up like it's an attraction. It was a sunny day, the ranch was on rolling hills and the fences and house were white. There were activities happening, it seemed like eventful and fun experience. At one point, Joe got our attention because one of his cows in the field had died. He loudly announced what had happened and was adamant that we take care of the space. The cow didn't die of unnatural causes but Joe wanted to make sure that nothing on the land would. He then puts the cow into a weird see-through mesh bag. And then puts that bag into a container and leaves the cow in its field with the other cows. Jeremy and I go into the field and we are maybe going to move this container, but then the cow comes back to life! It's very obvious that this is a prized cow and is light brown and very large. It seems to have a patriarchal energy. Now that the cow is alive, we take off the bag and let it climb out of the container while giving it some room to move. The next scene I am looking at a Facebook post and Janie Bogardus has posted that she is "Going to try out VOVALDI again even though it's not very good" (this is a restaurant). Suddenly I am the person entering the restaurant and it is very fancy. I have a knowing that Janie wants to go back to this restaurant for a specific dessert that uses specific breeds of bananas that you can't get anywhere else. As I'm walking up the internal steps of the restaurant, I see botanical gardens with these little bananas growing all over the place. It's not the fanciest restaurant, but maybe just one step above a Swiss Chalet. As I am walking in the front doors, I am holding a Rubbermaid container that has the cow's name on the inside. I see Joe sitting at a table and I walk by him to my own table and kind of flash the container so that he sees the cow's name. He doesn't know that the cow is alive yet! As I walk by, I go to the bathroom and Jeremy meets me in the bathroom. It's like we're talking about a plan of how to reveal to Joe that the cow is alive. It's important to note here that Joe is my old stepdad and Jeremy my step brother (in real life). Jeremy realizes he is in the women's bathroom and we step out together. Then all of a sudden I am in a car leaving and it's my car but Amy poehler is in the driver's seat and Seth Meyers is in the passenger seat and I am in the back. As we start to drive forward, I realize that Amy is facing me and not the road and is eating an ice cream. It's dark outside and we're in a small antique sports car convertible. I'm stressed by this chaotic drive. We managed to pull into a gas station and I'm trying to control the car even though I am not in the driver's seat. We get the car to the pump but it's on the wrong side or something. The gas station is busy and I feel uncomfortable and out of place, like frazzled and I don't know what to do. Amy and Seth are more casual and they tell me that they're in their mid-40s and that it " doesn't matter" or something like that. They seem like people who want to have fun, but I have trouble relinquishing control. I'm not that annoyed by them but I am physically uncomfortable in my body with the haphazard nature of this scene. The end.
