Speaking of writing boring scenes, how would you go about writing a ... well a "montage" scene?

Not necessarily the inspiring kind with Eye of the Tiger over it, but the more homely/drab kind you might see in some movies where the scene follows the protagonist through an ordinary evening or something else mundane.

Not something you might want to spend a lot of time on (See: boring), but might be necessary to set the mood or contrast to following scenes.

There's certainly some limitations compared to what a motion picture can do with such a scene (sound obviously, harder to do narration at the same time...).

I find that it can be a powerful thing done right but well... I don't have the writing experience to quite know how to approach it properly.
