I seems characters from Supernatural are now being used as fillers and extras in my dreams.

Weird dream that started out pretty normal. I was going into my 11:30AM writing class after Thanksgiving break and I remember this because that's when our food presentations are due and I, apparently, made hashbrown casserole. I took it in one of my cute retro pyrex dishes, too. Anyhow, something happens and I leave the classroom for some reason and I end up in what seems like a long bathroom (like a school bathroom with the stalls and such). At some point, the term 'mental ward' comes into my head for it because there's other people there (mostly girls) who, while aren't necessarily mental or off in the head, but might seem that way to some people (much like how girls were committed decades ago because of normal rebellion and normal teenager things).

For some reason, I seem to be the only one who can just get up and leave at random. There aren't any guards and I tell the other girls that I'll find a way to get them out. I leave twice. Once I don't get far and I return for something (I guess I had my bag with me? I'm not sure?). The second time I leave I don't return.

I have one of my Target bags with me (those reusable ones) and I'm playing casual walking past a police officer. I make it to the main part of the school (which doesn't look like KSU anymore at this point) and another officer sees me and he has this look in his eyes like he knows I'm sneaking around for some reason. The next thing I do? I look over and spot Sam and Dean at a nearby table (though, it's not Sam and Dean Sam and Dean because I think they were just extras in my dream, but I don't know). I exploit Sam's obvious confusion by pretending he's my boyfriend (and whispering that something really fucking weird is going on in this place) and he plays along while the officer questions me. Dean had, at some point, disappeared.

Then the dream cuts to the parking lot and I'm looking for TJ's car (I'm assuming TJ is also in one of these 'mental wards', as well). There's A LOT of silver cars and I have a hard time finding it until I run across a group of people we apparently know (from Supernatural, the Ghostfacers crew) and they one kid points me in the direction of the car.

There's a cat inside. A little black kitten. I'm assuming it's ours and I clean out the car briefly while trying to keep it out of my way.

Cut back to the apartment. I'm looking for something and, at one point, I clean the bedroom. I'm thinking we need room for people? I'm not sure. I briefly lose my phone, there's no lights on in the house. This doesn't seem to be a concern for me while I'm inside, at least. I find my phone, call someone, I don't remember who. Someone I know, at least. Then I head downstairs. Upon getting ready to lock the door, I realize I don't have my keys (probably left them upstairs), but I'm in a hurry, so I grab TJ's (not dawning on my until now, how did the car get to the school if TJ's keys are still at the house).

Then I realize the lights in the garage are off (they're never off). I peek out the second door and see that the back door is open and the garage door is open. I know something's up. I lock the house door and I head towards the car. I stop at the driver's door and I see a shadowy figure in the backseat. I tell the stranger to get out and get the hell out of here (around this time, I notice it's raining, it's been raining for a day or two here in real life). The person steps out and gives me some spiel about how I have to get in the car and something something. I don't quite recall. The man is tall, but it's hard to make out features. However, I'm pretty sure it was Lucifer from Supernatural (Mark Pellegrino, not Sam Lucifer).

So I get in the car and I pull out of the driveway. As I pull out of the garage, I see a golden retriever barking from inside either my house or the house next door. I want to say it was my house, but the door it was barking from isn't a screen door and, uh, we don't have a dog. I notice that it is still raining a bit (sprinkling is more like it) and it's very bright out for being (what I'm assuming) so late at night. There are police cars all over my street, but I don't hear any sirens or much noise at all aside from the rain. The man in the back seat doesn't seem concerned by the police cars, but I keep thinking that, if I can 'accidentally' get someone's attention, maybe I can get this guy the hell out of here. I drive down the road erratically (really, how I assume I'd drive without practice anyhow. But this time it's intentional.), trying to hit one of the police cruisers. I never manage to hit one, but I notice many house on my street are on fire. The backs of them, at least. This must be the reason for all the light. It seems to be this way everywhere I drive (which isn't terribly far before I wake up). I continue to try to get SOMEONE'S attention, but I'm always just a bit short of running into a car or making a bit scene, despite the fact that I'm driving in a way that WOULD and SHOULD be noticed by someone.

Then, I wake up. I never make it back to the school.

When I first woke up, I thought my subconcious was telling me that 'hey, things could be worse, here!'. But after writing it down, I wonder if I wasn't dreaming that I was a ghost or something. I really don't know. Usually I can figure heads or tails of my dreams, but this one has really thrown me for a loop.

Or maybe it doesn't mean anything and I've been watching too much Supernatural.
