Rant of the day... or just a mere coincidence!!!

Hi all...
I'm beginning to question my Luck... Well yes, as luck would have it... made it to the office today at 9:45 a.m.
I never get to the office this late. EVER. I typically park a block away from the office on a street that is perpendicular to my office. So I cross the street, as always, and walk down to my office facing on coming traffic.
Much to my surprise, (and I'm being sarcastic here) I see a familiar car... with a familiar face... My Ex N of course...
Life is funny, I keep saying that to myself. So when she "noticed me" or better yet when "I noticed" that "she noticed me", she made the "subtle decision" of switching lanes from the one closest to the sidewalk (and me) to the center one.
At the time, I was talking in my cellphone carrying my briefcase, don't ask me why, but just for shits and giggles ,or maybe it was just instinctual, I did a very detached 2 finger wave, thus acknowledging her presence(9:47).
Of course she ignore my very existence. And pretended to look straight on (she always wears those dark sunglasses, so you cant really see her eyes at all) So I don't know...
I went inside my office, got to my desk, and felt so bad... I went back out to get fresh air and smoke a cigarette. I was in the side walk facing oncoming traffic and next thing (9:59) there she was coming back from where she had gone. So she only saw my back and naturally I only saw the back of her car.
1- Kids are out of school for summer break.
2- After school finished she went on a trip with her kids and mom... (found out through the grapevine).
3- She had not seen me in 2 weeks... I guess it was her turn to do her foghorn-leghorn routine.
4- Naturally after memorial day weekend... It's her first chance to try an run into me. Jesus what are the odds!!!!
4- No reason whatsoever to use that Rd. None.
5- Finally she looked really pissed off... and yes this time I did look ;( I'm only human.
Later on 2:30(pm) I went to the bank, and yes! yet again in a completely different avenue... boom the she was just passing by in her car. This time I know she didn't see me. I was in a coworkers car at an angle she couldn't possibly have seen me but I did look at her.... She looked so pissed but in an expressionless sort of way!!! Iike with the thousand yard expression, just by the contortion of her face... Remember I went to design school, and as a very detail oriented person, I do notice things. I don't get it... how could I possibly get it???....
I must admit I feel terrible.... I feel sorry giving her the pleasure of acknowledging her even if by tacitly 2 fingered waving at her... it was like an instinctual reaction... deer caught in the headlights moment!!!... and yes almost broke-down in the bathroom this morning!!! what a way of braking 2 months of NC. Just weird! I seriously feel like disappearing...
Can't really believe this... sure feels like I'm stuck in a bad episode of the twilight zone!
So again Luck???? or coincidence???
