Portuguese? Or really poorly-typed Spanish.

hi leila, sorry um ka panhau telefone. :( um sta na nha doc, um tral som um skece poi kantu um sai. txomam hora ku puder.bjinhos.
from a 617 phone number, Thursday, January 28, 6:02 PM

This one is neither Spanish nor Portuguese. I know it is about something kind of bad, due to the frowny face. And I bet the word "um" means "and." Or "I." I can't think of any other words you'd use five times in one text.
...lasted this long..we could have gone on a double date!! Haha lmao yay! Now u have to introduce us!< 33 im so happy:)
from a 631 phone number, Sunday, January 24, 3:23 PM

Lot of potential explanations here. I'm choosing to go with: Leila has been waiting for some guy to ask her out for a long time, and now he FINALLY did, and Leila's friend 631 is really excited for her and can't wait to meet her new boyfriend. True/False?
Mrakovcich hi leila good morning hows it going today?
from an 860 phone number, Sunday, January 24, 8:21 AM

This girl. Fortunately there's only one. But why you'd want to spell out that entire last name instead of just pulling it from your contacts list is beyond me.
U dont like me anyway
from a 513 phone number, Saturday, January 23, 10:01 PM

Lending credence to 513's self-doubt is the fact that Leila never replied to this text message.

M Hey did you stop throwing up?
TEAM EDWARD!!!!

from a 208 phone number, Tuesday, January 26, 11:21 PM

Team Edward seems like not that contentious a position. I mean, is anyone out there actually on Team Jacob? Also, when you're already nauseated, is thinking about Bella and Edward's creepy romance really going to soothe your stomach at all?
thanks so much for inviting me to your party-jerk
from a 714 phone number, Saturday, January 23, 8:13 PM

It's cool-- I wasn't invited, either.
can u or will pick me up 8 or 8.30 at donna s? am on the plane at dallas. thnx mom
from a 425 phone number, Saturday, January 23, 5:28 PM

I replied to this with my standard, "Sorry, your text came to me instead of Leila, please resend by pulling her name out of your contacts list. Do not spell it out." 425 responded with this:

can u pick me up 8 or 8.30 at donna's? willcall on way home am on the plane in dallas.lol mom
from a 425 phone number, Saturday, January 23, 5:32 PM

I am charmed by the fact that she tried. She clearly rephrased and retyped this whole message. But she still did not send it to Leila, is the sad part.
whats the plan?

from a 740 phone number, Wednesday, January 27, 5:12 PM

I hope everyone read Trevor's comment on Prema's last text messages, because I think he really neatly summarizes exactly what is wrong with the Prema-Leila relationship. (i.e. Prema is a micromanager who somehow doesn't even realize that Leila is never receiving her texts.)

hair color. valentines. craft stuff. patch material. green binding. fruit. english muffins. computer paper. sale games.
from a 970 phone number, Saturday, January 23, 12:37 PM

Best shopping list ever. Here we have a healthy-eating, dyed-hair craftster who likes sale games (whatever those are). Sounds like a cool gal.
come home said mom cause they made food and she wants u home
from a 313 phone number, Friday, January 22, 6:17 PM

I feel like there was a way to convey this same message using one-third as many words. You know?
please go by & check on aunt mary she's not feeling well also there is a present for you on my bed
from a 562 phone number, Friday, January 22, 1:02 PM

on my way
from a 562 phone number, Saturday, January 23, 12:31 PM

need anything from costco
from a 562 phone number, Saturday, January 23, 7:45 PM

You know, I wasn't going to go check on Aunt Mary, because that sounded like a "good deed." But if there's a present for me, then I guess you have bribed me into it.
medicine
from a 207 phone number, Friday, January 22, 9:37 AM

would like to invite Mike to dinner if you wish. spaghetti garlic bread. ready 6-6:30. let me know.
from a 207 phone number, Friday, January 22, 5:00 PM

Mike is one the fence as to whether to join you for dinner. Knowing that there will be spaghetti is neither here nor there. Hearing that there will also, in addition, be garlic bread, is an important factor. But what Mike really wants to know is: Will there be medicine?
would u be terribly upset if i didnt make it to the funeral home. i was getting ready 2 leave but heard roads were really bad with the fog on way 2 RB
from a 314 phone number, Wednesday, january 20, 6:33 PM

No, that's fine. Go ahead. Stay home. Never mind that this is the FUNERAL of someone NEAR AND DEAR to Leila (presumably). If the roads are bad, then by all means! Keep sitting on your couch!
