Wierd glitch - Anes Vendu

[Minsk]

Anes Vendu is usually found dead in a dwemer ruin (part of the mage guild quests). And when you find him you get a journal update to say you have found him.

However when I was looking around the study in Asgard the message suddenly appeared and my journal was updated

Has anyone else had this message appear unexpectedly?

I've not had that particular glitch, but journal oddities aren't uncommon. I occasionally find quests listed which I cannot undertake, much less finish, because I'm not in the proper Great House or guild; and often after curing Lette and getting my reward, the journal says she died. Such anomalies can be cleared up with the console or CS, but unless they break a quest (as in listing a quest as finished before you get your reward, or claiming you failed a task which you completed successfully) I ignore them.
