I received the weirdest, most random mail ever Wednesday: one ticket to the Indianapolis 500 practice, one ticket to the Indianapolis 500 qualifications, a lunch voucher for the 500 Festival, and a schedule of events for the Friends of the Festival Appreciation Day - events that occurred last month - in a hand-written envelope from Indianapolis.
1. I make fun of racing and, to a degree, people who watch it - mostly this is limited to serious fans. I'm just being honest here (sorry Dad...but FYI I never make fun of you). And in my defense, my making fun of people is never mean and is mostly just in my head.
2. These tickets were for an event that happened a month ago!
3. To my knowledge, I know no one who lives in Indianapolis, let alone Indiana.
4. My name was misspelled on the envelope - a misspelling I've never seen before: Angelar. But my last name, the name most people mess up, was fine. As was the rest of my address.
5. I looked up the return address on line (it was provided sans name). Nothing came up on the white pages reverse directory and Google maps street view showed a residential neighborhood.
6. There have been no weird or unexplained charges on my checking account or credit card.
7. On ebay, these month-old tickets would score me $10. Maybe.
It's a mystery! Is anyone out there who thinks they may have an answer or at least another clue?

Solutions?
Anyone know any good solutions for keeping my couches clean? Kelly likes the dogs on the couch and I like them to not get the couches dirty. I would much rather have no dogs on the couch ever, under any circumstances, but I'm willing to concede that most of the time. In the meantime, my couches are dirty...and I don't want to vacuum (or shampoo, which is what they really need) every day. Anyone have a magic wand?
