    Had a shocker the other day my wife's ex-husbnd from Germany just showed up at the front door the other day for a social visit. No warning.

      Not so good. Uh, hey, wow, happened to be walking in the neighborhood (well, only 4000+ miles from your particular neighborhood, but still...) and thought I'd stop by....

      Hope he wasn't planning on staying long! Can't exactly say, gee, now's not a great time.... On the other hand, could imagine saying: Wow, now's not a great time--actually never's a great time. Whaddya say you come back...never.

      Hope it went OK.

        Well it turned out Ok. He got a hotel room not far away. He cooked some goulash (german style) and we ate and talked. I was a little upset that he didn't bring some of the famous wine from his hometown in Germany. I especially like their burgundy wine. Spatburgender, I believe it was. In spite of the unannounced visit we were gracious. I think an unexpected visit is rude, but it happens. As long as it doesn't become a habit.
