“Let’s go to my house.”
“Your house?”
“Yeah. You can meet my mom.”
“What about your dad?”
“Oh, he has to work late tonight. Sorry.”
“Don’t apologize, it’s fine! I’m sure I’ll meet him another time. Oh, don’t do your nervous thing! There will be plenty of opportunities for me to meet him later.”
“My ‘nervous thing’?”
“You know. Where you pinch your eyebrows together tilt your head over your shoulder.”
“Well, you’re a perceptive one...”
“Come on, don’t look at me like that! I notice things about a lot of different people.”
“Alright, Detective Beautiful, we should probably start heading to my house now. It’s not far, just about a ten-minute walk.”
“Hey, is that your dad in that picture on the mantle? The one in the navy frame?”
“Yeah, from when he was on a business trip in Seattle. You’re from there, right?”
“Uh, yeah, but the thing is...”
“What is it? Are you alright?”
“Uh, yeah, yeah, I’m fine, but the thing is...the thing is that I have...have the same picture, the same frame...at my house. On my mantle. Actually, I...I took the picture.”

Answer:
In this short story by Ray Bradbury we can find many technologies similar to those we have today.
Explanation:
Here I will leave a list with the technological items in the story and their similar at present:
- The voice of the clock in the room: Although we do not use a clock that tells us "time to get up" over and over again, it is very common to have an alarm clock with some personalized sound, we can even put some song for the cell phone alarm.
- The breakfast oven that prepares the toasts: Today there are microwaves that you can program with a timer to turn them on.
- The voice that speaks about the news and the bills pending payment: This could be similar to the alarms or reminders that we program on our cell phone, where we can write down from birthdays to due dates of bills.
- The automatic garage door: Today there are automated doors that open at the push of a button.
- The dishwashing machine: That exists today, with the only difference that each person must put dirty dishes there.
- Mechanical mice: What resembles this today are electric vacuum cleaners, also programmable that one can leave to vacuum the house on their own.
- The garden water jets: This is also something that is used today.
