I wish I could write.

My insomnia cure is to think up a fictional planet and fill out the environment, climate etc. Mine is a planet that orbits tidally locked in a close orbit around a red dwarf which orbits a sunlike star at a distance a bit further out than mars. An orbit around the dwarf is about 3 days which makes a day on the “darkside” about 36 hours long.

After a year of thinking on something like that, you’d be surprised at how much detail you can fill in. I’ve decided that it needs a Walmart.

Probably already a Starbucks there. ;)
