Planned Parenthood

Seriously? Why do I seem to attract weird and totally inappropriate junk mail? Is there something about my name that just screams "let's send her a flier!"?! At our old house I received numerous [as in way more than one or two] fliers for retirement homes... what the? And then who can forget this - my sample hearing aide. And we all know the icing on the cake was from my favorite inmate. [Did you miss that one? Yeah, totally got a letter from some random guy in prison. Short version: Wrong person, wrong address and don't worry, the letter had been forwarded and he doesn't have our new address.]

Well, here's the latest. Apparently I am somehow on the Eugene/Springfield Planned Parenthood mailing list - and yet, they have our Washington address. Someone want to explain how that one happened?! But.... "When you come in for your appointment bring this card with you and we'll give you a $5 gift voucher good at Bagel Sphere, located at 810 Willamette Street in Eugene and 5768 Main Street in Springfield."

This was the front.

And this was how I filled in the blank. Well, one out of two ain't bad!! ;)

Anyway. Whatever. If they absolutely must, I guess just keep 'em coming. They're good for a laugh and then go straight into the recycling bin.

[Dang! I missed out on a free bagel opportunity.]

You crack me up! I totally did NOT miss your inmate letter post. That happens to be one of my favorites if not my ABSOLUTE favorite post of yours. I don't understand how people get addresses. Like I got junk mail addressed to Megan ARNOLD (maiden name) at my in-laws. How? Why? I don't use that name, and how did anyone know I was there. A Megan ARNOLD has NEVER been there. Weird, weird, weird.

mmmmmm... bagels! And free birth control ain't bad. Did you send it back with the blank filled in? That would have been funny. I always get boring bills in my mail I want something exciting...(um, and safe ;) )
