Well found out last night matt has a game so we may have logistical probs

J would like to see a movie tho
from an 865 phone number, Friday, February 8, 11:13 AM
This comes from the same guy who was asking about buying Abercrombie shorts for k. I assume 865 is a dude, and Leila is his wife, and k, Matt, and J (referred to in the Abercrombie message as 'Jess') are their children. This explanation isn't necessarily true, but I consider it the most parsimonious. Occam's Razor, etc.

is anyone taking mackenzie to disney on ice tell her to see her my space
from a 916 phone number, Thursday, February 7, 12:27 AM
Whoa, what's on Mackenzie's MySpace? Some posting about Disney on ice? If Mackenzie is young enough to need to be taken to Disney on ice, isn't she also too young to have a MySpace account? I mean, there are internet pedophiles out there. Don't you ever read the newspaper?

Does k need a pair of short kakhi shorts from Abercrombie...size 16 son big in waist for Jess...only 10 dollars
from an 865 phone number, Monday, February 4, 12:51 PM
Does k need a pair of $10 Abercrombie shorts? Hell yes she does! Abercrombie usually costs mad bucks. If you spy a deal, my god, grab it while you can!

Sorry, another Valentines Day-related text that I failed to post at the appropriate time. (I was busy.) Now that I have the chance to comment, I just want to say: ))>-%-- actually looks more like a rose than I originally thought. (The petals are to the left-hand side-- see it? Kind of?) It's like when you use your calculator to write 80085 (aka BOOBS), only way more complex.

these refs suck
from a 408 phone number, Sunday, February 10, 12:02 AM
Now, this is from a different 408 phone number from all the texts that I just posted-- the ones that started with "Wright"-- but I imagine this text is directed to the same Leila. I mean, how many Leilas who care about sports can there be in the greater San Jose area?
So that's kind of cool, getting texts from different people that are intended for the same person. It seems like I could somehow triangulate in on this Leila's identity, if I heard from enough of her different friends and family members.
But not if they all just talk about sporting events. That doesn't really tell me all that much about this Leila.

from a 408 phone number, Sunday, February 3, 11:05 PM
These texts confuse me. They're all from Leila's mother, but I don't know why they all start with the word "Wright." Leila appears to be feeling sort of sick ("How R you feeling," "Hope you r feeling better," etc). Leila's mother went to see a sports game in the evening, but Leila did not come (perhaps because she was feeling sick?). The sports game was very impressive, not least because of Angie's involvement. Maybe Angie is Leila's sister? Hard to say. And what sort of fun can Leila have tonight, given how sick she had been feeling? This one is a particularly tricky puzzle, I'm finding.

So what's Tyler getting u for Valentine's Day.
from an 860 phone number, Saturday, February 2, 11:18 PM
Sorry, I failed to post this right when I received it (when it was obviously more timely). But I take issue with this question on a number of levels. First of all, if Tyler is getting Leila a Valentines Day present, it should be a surprise. She shouldn't know ahead of time, and certainly shouldn't be telling all her friends.
Moreover, I have to remind you that Valentines Day = kind of a lame holiday. Even if you have a significant other, Valentines Day is not like your birthday or your anniversary or anything. All holidays are made-up, but Valentines Day more so than most. Which isn't to say you shouldn't celebrate it-- by all means, celebrate it. All I'm saying is, it is not important enough a holiday for it to be a topic of textual conversation between you and your friends 12 days prior to the actual holiday. Please discuss something more pertinent. Thank you.

You know, I think this may be the first even remotely political Leila Text that I've received. Which is kind of surprising, given that it's an election year. I have no idea if most Leila Texters are Democrats or Republicans, Clinton or Obama supporters, interventionist or isolationist...

Dear sister. The fact that u can not acknowledge that I have a life outside of scottdale shows me u really don't know me.
Bro. Zed's babyboy
from a 678 phone number, Saturday, February 2, 5:00 AM
That would be Scottdale, Georgia, if you were curious. Which is, by the way, in EST, so I have to wonder what Bro. Zed's babyboy was doing up at 5 AM. I also have to wonder what kind of a name "Bro. Zed's babyboy" is. It sort of undermines the power of the "u really don't know me" claim.

from a 480 phone number, Sunday, February 10, 11:21 PM
Honestly, there's nothing all that ORIGINAL about this MSG.
Also, I hate to say this, but I find it hard to take these sorts of threats seriously when they're misspelled ("u will loose them"). Sorry.

I did call this person back as soon as I got this message. I left a voicemail that was like, "Um, this seems very complicated... I'm worried Leila might accidentally get on the bus instead of waiting for Sheryn... Please re-send your text message." Goodness, I hope Leila got home from school okay!

9.025 on beam... tucked dismount..same as fall Jamie waited a good 3 sec between jumps still got credit...9.3 she needed that. Thought they were overly

from an 865 phone number, Saturday, February 16, 8:45 PM
Thanks to eight years of gymnastics training, I understand exactly what these text messages mean. Basically, Jamie is pretty talented. She didn't connect two of her jumps in her beam routine, which can lower the overall value of the routine (e.g. two jumps that are B moves can count as a C if they are connected, and depending on what level you're at, you're required to include a certain number of C elements in your routine). She also casted twice, instead of once, during her bars routine, and that's the sort of hesitation you get points off for. However, if she's doing a floor routine with a start value of 9.7, she must be pretty good. My routines never had start values above, like, 9.0.
DOESN'T THIS FASCINATE YOU? Like I said, I spent eight years of my life in discussions like this one. YOU KNOW YOU LOVE IT.

"Messages to Your House Cleaner" continues to be one of the most popular types of Leila Texts, perhaps tied with "Messages Telling Your Friend How Much You Hate Her," but still coming in well behind "Pointless Messages That Just Say 'Hi.'"

Yafit, let me get this straight: Are you spreading the rumor that Alex had her period, and somehow her tampon was insufficient, and therefore she was leaking menstrual blood everywhere but trying to pass it off as pizza sauce? Regardless of the veracity of this story, you really shouldn't go around texting everyone about it. Do you want to destroy Alex's self-esteem forever?
I guess, probably, yeah. That is, as I recall, what middle school was all about.
