Weird dream

I'm at my high school graduation and my boyfriend and best friend tell me that they are now a couple. I'm furious and walk away, looking for somewhere else to sit for the ceremony because I don't want to be around them. One guy offers me a seat next to him but it's already "taken" and the next seats are wet for some reason. I'm about to sit on the driest of them when I spot a large Arabic-looking swirl in golden flame over a side hall. I go down it and find an Middle-eastern looking man sweeping up in a large empty space. I ask him what the letter meant, but he insists that there was no letter. He's obviously trying to get rid of me, so I turn to go back to the graduation ceremony. As I do, he gets an odd, considering expression on his face (my "overmind" knows that the glowing letter was put there by a djinn and that the man knows it as well) ... and the dream shifts suddenly to me opening my eyes to bright natural light.
There's a young European-American male looking down at me with an expression of concern - dirty-blonde well-cut hair, tee-shirt filled out very nicely, jeans ("Andy" from the show WKRP in Cincinnati). I am in an old gas station converted to a day care and he's the care-taker. The kids are all ages from very young to barely teen. One little boy almost breaks my heart. He's about four or so, Downs syndrome, and he's fascinated by the toy jewelry. He picks up a bracelet and puts it on. Looks at it, then with tears in his eyes, he takes it off again saying "No no no". He does the same with other pieces of jewelry.
I'm not too upset about the change in circumstances because (1) I'm still upset about my boyfriend jilting me for my best friend and (2) the guy is way cute and seems interested in me. I start helping and bonding with the kids.
At one point, I go out of the building and look around. There's an old trailer home off to one side, covered with kudzu, sealed up with some plastic - with a warning sign "Warning: Sheriff Black", it's either on the trailer or as an open captioning for the show because at this point "I" am being played by Amy Schumer. I pull the plastic off the door ... and fall into a ditch as a result. While I am in the ditch, the door opens and a figure shaped like Jackie Gleason as Sheriff Buford T. Justice exits the trailer home. Shaped like because his face and parts of his body are obscured with black tar-like substance. "Sheriff Black"
At this point, I am definitely watching a show because one of the children from the day care is sitting beside me and he's a little scared of Sheriff Black. I hug him and point to Amy Schumer, struggling to get out of the ditch.
"If this were really down in the South," I say, "She'd been covered with poison ivy." He giggles and I'm back in the middle of the action, being told what the crops were around the converted gas station.
I hear a news report about my absence and find out that my family is very upset over my disappearance, so I call them then hike out to meet up with my mother and aunt coming to pick me up. I am afraid that if I'm found at the day care, they would suffer because ... there's some sort of secrecy about it all, that the kids would suffer if the authorities find them.
But I feel like I'm abandoning them. And then there's that really cute guy.
I meet up with my relatives, they're going to take me home, but I have to say goodbye so I call the gas station. I talk to the cute guy, explaining and he convinces me to stay where I am and he'll come get me. It's a split screen at this point, with Amy Schumer on one side and the cute guy on the other. At one point during the conversation, however, he peeks over the dividing line and gives me a wink.
