Is that really the percentage? How much research has gone into the statistics of this text?

Is there a reason why any one person would have to attend two softball games in one afternoon?
hey is ur prom this Saturday or did it pass already
from a 760 phone number, Wednesday, May 6, 3:00 PM

Now that's it's Scav Hunt and there's an awesome Gossip Girl item on the list (#166), I am receiving even more texts than usual. (Hard to imagine, right?) So I need to distinguish between purposeful stranger texts and accidental stranger texts. But this one is accidental. Even though there is an awesome prom item on the list (#148), too.

Wow. What a business-like email. Maybe it's the "dear leila" salutation. I know I'm not the Intended Leila, but still, it really made me sit up straight.

Do the reading and potentially make a timeline. That's what social studies is. That's the whole subject, in a nutshell. You're welcome.

from a 518 phone number, Tuesday, May 5, 6:47 AM

Oh my Lord, am I glad I don't have a baby. I need WAY more sleep than this. Is 518 really rejoicing because baby k slept nearly 7 hours? I can sleep nearly 7 hours as a midday nap.

from a 602 phone number, Monday, May 4, 9:49 PM

Is anyone else feeling like this is a really pessimistic text? How everything only seems perfect? How you will inevitably lose the one u Care 4? Is it really so bad, 602?

from an 860 phone number, Monday, May 4, 6:37 PM

Within 23 minutes, 860 was dragged from Dean's basketball game (which I think he was winning?) to Britt's therapy? C'mon, parents of 860, can't you just get the kid a babysitter and leave him home alone for an afternoon? This sounds like an exhausting run of errands.

FWD: John 3:16 This is really creepy! Fwd this to 9 ppl not me then turn off ur phone. Turn it back on and look at your new wallpaper. 100% true
from a 540 phone number, Sunday, May 3, 10:59 AM

Over the two years of the Leila Texts, I have received many, many iterations on this chain text. But I think this is the first version to ever reference a Bible verse. Apparently the verse says: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Which doesn't immediately appear to have much to do with cell phone wallpaper. But, really, how would I know?
