MOTHRA coincidence



I have this new line, that I like to use on my girlfriend as often as possible. It's that I am "More handsome than 10 movie stars." Whenever I say this to my girlfriend she retorts with a list of movie stars that I am supposedly more handsome than, like "the 3 stooges, cousin IT, Grandpa Munster..." I can not do her lists justice, her lists always make me laugh, they are hilarious and each one is funnier than the next. Yesterday I told her I was "More handsome than 10 movie stars" and she came back with "MOTHRA." I had to laugh. "What made you think of Mothra?" I asked. "You never saw Mothra." She said she did, she's seen all the Godzilla movies. I left her place in NY to come back to Montreal later that same day.
The very next day, back in Montreal. My cat comes into my bedroom through the open window from outside with something HUGE in his mouth. A moth! The biggest moth I have ever seen. He let it go from his mouth and the moth flew around my bedroom. I had to catch it in a jar and release it back outside. It was the biggest moth I have seen alive and in person, not including trips to the Insectarium. I tossed the moth outside and told Nefta, my girlfriend about it. It did not even occur to me that it was another one of our coincidences, until....
...I turned on the TV a few hours later. What was on TV? Godzilla vs Mothra!!!
