Way too big for Latridiidae. This is a weevil (Curculionidae), I think in
the Otiorhynchini, but I'm not all that familiar with the nearctic fauna.
In any case it's a plant feeder, and is an accidental visitor. The
grubs of *Otiorhynchus
*often feed on houseplants, which may explain its presence indoors.
