Aaron,

The short answer appears to be that you are not using a hash but rather the
HashWithIndifferentAccess class which apparently in combination with Marshal
spits out characters (I'm guessing the tick at the end of this section right
here "\004\b{\b\"\b305\"`Complete) which are not conducive to storage within
SQLite.

My quick and dirty suggestion would be to switch your data back to a raw
hash prior to SQLite storage and then reverse the process on the way back
out of the database.

For example,

data = Marshal.dump(p.to_hash)

and

p = HashWithIndifferentAccess.new(data)
