As John Conde pointed out, Google results will vary. They are constantly trying to personalize and tailor their search results. Examples:


Different listings / positions for different users (location, habits, etc).
Altered listings for mobile users.
Modification of title tags (when this started to happen, I thought I had inadvertently updated something).
Site links showing in one search, but not the next.


All in all, it is difficult to figure out what Google is doing in regards to personalized search, especially seeing as they have thousands of different servers, all of which could give back slightly-different listings. Personally, I wouldn't worry about this unless it became too common.

This sounds like a case of personalized search results. Google is returning search results tailored to your search habits. So when you are on your computer, and logged in to Google, you see what Google thinks you want to see based on your search and surfing habits. The rest of the world sees what Google thinks is most relevant for them and they clearly have different habits than you especially when it comes to your own website.
