The Tattoo That Will Help Aliens Find My Home

For eight months before quarantine I went to the gym every day. Within two months in lockdown, I was fat again.
I’m starting over.
 
It’s a hassle. Riding my bike in the 97-degree heat, I had to get off along High Street and walk. Sad.
 
A construction guy on the sidewalk started talking to me.
 
“Are you recording?” he said, pointing to the GoPro.
 
“Yeah,” I said, breathing heavy. “It’s so they can identify my body if I die out here in this heat.”
Which makes no sense but he laughed.
 
“My friend got a tattoo all over his chest,” he said. “It showed the earth and the exact longitude and latitude of his home. That way they knew where to drop him off if he was ever abducted by aliens!”
 
“Great idea!” I said, laughing. “I’m going to the tattoo shop now.”
