Darned cockwombles.
This is one of the weirdest things in life. You're going about your everyday life, and then someone in the top ten of last people you ever expect to hear from gets in contact with you, and you're (often) knocked seriously off-balance. I've just had this happen this morning, and it seems like it's some kind of bizarre (not necessarily good though) karma for me swallowing my pride and contacting the former best friend I hd a massive argument with after a few years.
I guess this is a big plot device in narrative in film and (less so?) in literature, for the sense of 'just when you forget life is so unpredictable, it comes back to remind you'.
Obviously the major environmental circumstance around this is that email and facebook have vastly facilitated this kind of thing, as the effort involved is minimal. So, any bizarre stories welcomed!
