Are you normally quite regular? Did either one come at the time you would have expected your period?
It can happen, but it is not the norm. The period comes from when your body had been preparing to receive a fertilized egg, when this doesn't happen, the tissue is shed. Ovulation rarely occurs twice in a month and almost always this will be in quick succession (one reason for twins). However, having the bleeding twice does not mean you may have ovuated twice. Was it the same as a usual period in length and amount? Sometimes you can have some bleeding after recent intercourse due to friction and irritation. Are you on a birth control pill? Some women have what is termed breakthrough bleeding, which may account for the second bleed. Hormone changes can result in breakthrough bleeding. Odds are it is simply a fluke, but see what happens when you are due for your next period. Let your doctor know if it continues to be off from your norm.
