had mystery stomach pains all night-not sure why. will be home for morning-maybe all day. txt you later when i know better.
from a 617 phone number, Wednesday, July 20, 7:21 AM EST

If I had to pick one of these health issues, I would go with the pulled tooth. To be honest, though, none of these options sound very pleasant.
And now for a short collection of recent text messages about pets:

Thanx again guys...sorry to freak out...shes just a baby and i can bear to lose another pup prematurely.

This is like the week of depressing texts. First we have the girl who has never read a book in her LIFE, and now we have puppies dying? What's next, rainbows that infect you with cancer?

?Zniflower?

from a 302 phone number, Wednesday, July 20, 6:46 PM EST

As a young adult author and editor, I find this text message INCREDIBLY DEPRESSING. That said, I am quite curious about what book has caused 302 to break her never-reading streak. Ten bucks says it's The Hunger Games.

from a 904 phone number, Saturday, July 16, 10:07 PM EST

Now this is the sort of text I like to see from mothers to their Leilas. Take note, 505.
I thought you were going to be home.
Love mom

from a 505 phone number, Sunday, July 17, 2:40 PM EST

It's already 6:00 o'ciock . I thought we were going to the movies.
Mom

from a 505 phone number, Sunday, July 17, 8"04 PM EST

This woman is beginning to drive me crazy. I can only imagine how her Intended Leila must feel. A CELL PHONE IS NOT A LEASH FOR YOUR CHILD. Or, if it is, it is not a very good one.
Hey I guess Ben is going to ARnolds parents to spend the night so he can go to work. I told him to let me know so we'll see. later.
from a 425 phone number, Friday, July 15, 9:20 PM EST

from a 425 phone number, Saturday, July 16, 2:55 PM EST

This is useful information, because it is important to me to know where Ben is staying every night.
Can you please meet me and Lindsey at the mall on Friday ?? If everyone can go , it will be Taylor , Lindsey , Jojo , and Leila (:
from an 808 phone number, Thursday, July 14, 3:25 AM EST

I don't know, 808. Last time we went to the mall you said we could go to the Mrs. Fields, but then once we got there you spent too much time at the Aeropostale so we didn't have time for cookies. I don't know how I feel about that.

from a 330 phone number, Monday, July 18, 12:35 PM EST

remind me about driving classes is anna taking with you
from a 330 phone number, Monday, July 18, 1:53 PM EST

That is a lot of doctors. Maybe Mom just wants to have a full medical roster lined up before Leila's first car accident.
