Journal Entry 5

“The first time we ever met, where was it, and when (Bradbury, 43)?” asked Montag.  “I don’t know (Bradbury, 43),” Mildred (Montag’s wife) said.  This part of the books made me realize how fast these people’s lives are in the future.  To not know where you met your husband or wife is insane to me.  That’s suppose to be something that you remember forever.  It then bothered Montag that he even could not remember.  It wasn’t like they had been married for a very long time.  They had only been married for ten years.  To Mildred that was such a long time, but to Montag it wasn’t. To him it mattered where they met, but to Mildred it did not.  I think that Montag is starting to realize the fast paste of his lifestyle and the important events that he has just looked over.
