Today I did homework and watched a movie that I've been meaning to watch for forever, The Devil Wears Prada. I vaguely remember reading the book a few years ago, but I had forgotten the plot. It was an ok movie I suppose.
But I got to skype with my friend for three hours. I miss Montanans.
Something funny that I noticed while walking today was that the lawns here are much less fancily kept than the classic American lawn. Most open spaces look like this here:
Which I think is very pretty and very energy-conscious. (I can't English anymore, the word I'm looking for is Energie-sparend but I seem to have forgotten the English meaning) No extra watering is required (sprinklers can make up to 50% of a house's water bill!), and you don't have to spend the time or pay someone to mow it all the time! Plus there are literally flowers everywhere, which is just generally easier on the eyes.
