As if automatically, the kitchen began making breakfast. The toaster quickly, "ejected eight pieces of perfectly brown toast, eight eggs sunny side up, sixteen slices of bacon, two coffees, and two cool glasses of milk." (Bradbury 1). This shows that in the future, humans become more dependant on electronics. You can also here today's events that were placed on the calendar, "Today in Mr. Featherstone's birthday. Today is the anniversary of Tilita's marriage. Insurance is payable,
as are the water, gas, and light bills." (Bradbury 1). In the future this would help people not forget what they have on their calendar if they don't look at their calendar at least once a day.]]> 2018-12-17 16:57:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315247514 jaric2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315253455 No one was in the house. "No doors slammed, no carpets took the soft tread of rubber heels." (Bradbury 1). The rain trickled down from the sky and the weather box, that sat on the porch, sang "'Rain rain go away; umbrellas, raincoats for today...'" (Bradbury 1). The garage door opened like it does everyday. The car sat there untouched, awaiting for it to be driven to work. By now, the eggs looked like a white raisin and the toast was as hard as a rock. A steel scraper scrapped them into the sink and began to rinse and place the dishes in the dishwasher.]]> 2018-12-17 17:10:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315253455 jaric2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315599083 Tiny robotic mice ran from the walls. Scurrying around the floor they began to clean. Within minutes the floor was covered in tiny robotic animals cleaning. Like an apocalypse, "they thudded against chairs, whirling their moustached runners,
kneading the rug nap, sucking gently at hidden dust." (Bradbury 1). And just like that they were gone in a flash, hidden in their barrows, their electric pink eyes fading, with the house clean, awaiting tomorrow.]]> 2018-12-18 16:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315599083 jaric2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315607698 It was the start to the end of the rain as the sun peeked through the clouds. In the city of rubble and ash, the house was left standing. Slowly the radioactive-like clouds pushed away. ]]> 2018-12-18 17:07:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315607698 jaric2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315638489 The sprinklers were turned on and sprayed the yard. Next to the yard lay the rubble  left from the smoldering ashes. In the lawn, lay a painting: a silhouette of a man mowing the lawn, a woman bent down in her flower bed picking flowers, and a small boy and girl playing catch in the yard. Now, filling with water, the garden lay untouched. A sparrow flying around, brushed against the window, "the shade snapped. The bird, startled, flew off! No, not even a bird must touch the house!" (Bradbury 2). It's like the house was a person.]]> 2018-12-18 18:16:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315638489 cjnel2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315871602 The dog had come home to eat lunch, the dog wanted food because the dog had been starving. The dog went to every door barking and yelping, the dog then realized that the house was empty and that no one would come and feed him. The dog was drooling at the mouth, it started sniffing for a human scent, it then started spinning in circles, biting its tail, then all of a sudden it died. ]]> 2018-12-19 14:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315871602 cjnel2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315872429 The dog was dead. Down in from the cellar, left a spark. The incinerator had glowed and had blown up. Sparks flew up and out of the chimney.]]> 2018-12-19 14:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315872429 cjnel2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315872843 At four-thirty the nursery was all set up for the baby to come in and sleep. No one had come to sleep in the room and the room was really lonely. There were stars on the walls, there were animals in the background and there was animals on the walls. At 5 the bathtub was full of hot water ready for someone to come and take a bath. ]]> 2018-12-19 14:34:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315872843 cjnel2021 https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315873128 The beds were ready for someone to come lay in them, but no one was home. At 9:05 p.m. the study ceiling had asked Ms. McClellan what book she wanted to read a story, but since there was no answer, the house said they will pick one at random. There was then quiet music in the background and a poem was being read but there was no one in the house. ]]> 2018-12-19 14:35:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jaric2021/ucezek1942e7/wish/315873128
