    DC woman: You won't believe what pet we got our daughter?

    She was going to say a goat - I just knew it, but she did not get to say it because someone else guessed "A fish?"

    "No, how could it be a fish? We keep it in our front yard. Actually we did have a fish, but it was sad, it was a matter of time: when we got it, we kept it in our front yard in warm weather, and all was well, but then it got cold, and the fish died. My daughter was devastated?"

    I suggested "Why not move the fish inside for the winter?"

    DC woman was shocked, hadn't thought of it before. All of a sudden the fish was not dead after all, and DC woman was able to move it inside for the winter based on my recommendation.

    There was no more mention of getting a goat as a pet. I assume no longer needed since fish survived.

      Not sure how, but I am sure the joke with goat and rabbi's recommendation is related somehow to this dream:

      Man comes to rabbi: "Rabbi, I can't stand it any more! My wife just had twins and my mother in law just moved in and my older kid got a dog, and there are just too many of us in a small home. What shall I do?"

      Rabbi: "Get a goat."

      Man comes back after a while: "Rabbi, now it is so much worse! The goat is always in the way. It is eating our stuff. Whenever I reach for something I get its nose. I stumble over the goat when I move."

      Rabbi: "Now sell the goat."

      Man returns to rabbi again "Oh, thank you so much rabbi! We all get along so much better ever since the goat is gone. There is so much more space in our home. Thank you!"

      Edit: Perhaps this dream is about making big problems out of little ones, when a simple solution could resolve issue?
