Incarcerated?
Also, if I tried this on my friends, I bet I would get 16 "tardy"s and four "blue-eyed"s.

hey leila

Both of these texts, especially the first, seem like greetings you would actually say aloud in passing. Like if 310 ran into Leila somewhere, say on their college campus, where he hadn't really expect her to be, and maybe he hadn't seen her in a couple weeks. "Dude! Hey! What's up?" Just somewhat surprised, you know? Maybe this is 310's response to an unexpected text from Leila.

845 is obviously 1/80th as neurotic as I am. I find moving-- anything related to real estate, actually-- to be so incredibly stressful, so traumatic, that I would never be able to send a casual text message about it. "Hey, you found a place for us to live yet? Because I'm totally ready to move in to wherever it is." I feel panicky just writing the words.

This is a very modern statement. In the age of youtube, myspace, etc., it's not seen as totally ridiculous for any cell phone-owning adolescent to address the "ppl of america." But had someone written a sentence like this in the year 1864, her friends and family all would have been like, "Um, 'ppl of america tlk to me'? Do you mean, like, 'ppl who live in our small fishing community'?"
