What a cutie. Tell Auntie Leslie Leah and Andrea Hi. Give Lily a kiss for me.

Awkward when you hit "send" mid-way through typing and your text doesn't make any sense because predictive texting has given you "authe" instead of "cutie."

Check on wine and food event in NO at the end of may.
from a 225 phone number, Thursday, April 30, 9:49 PM

225 is Louisiana, so I assume NO means New Orleans. Don't know what wine and food event this would be, though. I was not invited.

I have your keys! Ya in yet?

Sounds like one Leila's going to have some trouble starting her car...

Hey is jessie cant have a sleepover do you think maybe you could?
from a 774 phone number, Thursday, April 30,6:01 PM

No. I refuse to be your second choice like that. I won't sit back and accept being treated this way!

swine flu is killing me
from a 520 phone number, Thursday, April 30, 4:39 PM

References to and jokes about swine flu spread faster than the flu itself. Memes are a powerful force.

It was one said that a black man would be president "when pigs flew" indeed 100 days into Obama's presidency...swin flu!! Haha

Um. I'll give them points for the pun, at least.

Do u have a calcqlator i can use
from a 703 phone number, Wednesday, April 29, 9:27 AM

Yeah, I have my TI-83 at my office, but, inexplicably, my co-workers always laugh at me when I use it for addition. Be warned, 703: If I lend it to you, people might laugh at you, too.

i planed the whole thing out we are going to go to the mall and watch a movie, and then after that were going to eat at chipotle!!!
from a 703 phone number, Tuesday, April 28, 5:18 PM

I actually do this sort of thing a lot: Plan out a series of mundane activities and then get three exclamation marks worth of excited because, somehow, this series of events strikes me as perfect. Like last Saturday, when Heddle and I were all, "We are going to sit in the park! And then we are going to eat dinner at a restaurant! And then we are going to a bar with outdoor seating! And it will be the best Saturday EVER!" And it a little bit was.

don't text nida!
from a 412 phone number, Monday, April 27, 4:04 PM

Why? Is it because Nida is a LOSER? Will Leila also become a LOSER when she accidentally texts Nida, not having received this message warning her against it?

hey who are u sitting with
from a 609 phone number, Monday, April 27, 2:53 PM

On the school bus? In the cafeteria? Personally, I am sitting alone, but that's probably not really what 609 was asking.

Huh

Is that a drawing of something? If so, what? It's not a rose. I know what rose emoticons look like already.

so im looking at flights and it a little over 400 for round trip. weekdays are cheaper, obviously. weekend flights are almost 500
from a 661 phone number, Sunday, April 26, 9:04 PM

I keep expecting this financial crisis to make air travel cheaper than it actually has. I just paid $260 for tickets to Chicago. Does it HAVE to cost so much?

you are a deck
from a 757 phone number, Sunday, April 26, 12:13 AM

You know how when someone is kind of funny you can call them a "card"? Well maybe 757 is trying to say that Leila is so funny, she is a whole DECK of cards! Or maybe 757 doesn't know how to spell the word "dick." Hard to say.

Sup
Lito
from a 440 phone number, Saturday, April 25, 6:11 PM

Oh, not much, Lito. Just in the middle of a whirlwind weekend of dancing and picnicking, taking a few minutes to update my blog. Sup, yourself?

I finished the 4.5 mile walk in I hour & 45 min. !
from a 904 phone number, Saturday, April 25, 11:09 AM

I think I can do like a 15-20 minute mile, so I could probably beat 904's time... but, you know, potentially this was not a "race."

from a 540 phone number, Friday, April 24, 7:36 AM

If I had a friend who sent me texts like this one-- at 7:36 in the morning, no less-- I would be like, "Dude, stop texting me. You're freaking me out."

why did you both leave your lunches at home?
from a 404 phone number, Friday, April 24, 7:34 AM

Uh, they probs didn't do it on purpose. I never purposefully forget my lunch.

Haha im watching zac efron do the dancee!!!!
from a 774 phone number, Thursday, April 23, 7:37 PM

So what are the plans for tomorrow?
from a 774 phone number, Thursday, April 23, 9:43 PM

Did you find it yet??
from a 774 phone number, Saturday, April 25, 9:25 AM

I am not embarrassed to state that Zac Efron is a great dancer, and whatever it was 774 was watching him do, well, I would like to watch, too. Did anyone else see his SNL appearance? I am not an SNL-watcher, but my roommate showed me a clip and it was funny. Of course, she and I also went to see HSM3 in theaters, so maybe we are not unbiased.

from a 206 phone number, Wednesday, April 22, 10:29 PM

I have not updated this blog in three days because that's how long it took me to realize that this was not transliterated from some foreign language. Sometimes I am not very good at the Leila Texts.
