this is gonna sound terrible, but would u do what we did last night with someone while we were together? cause even if we didnt kiss u know we did stuff
from a 203 phone number, Sunday, December 27, 10:26 PM
I love this text. This is amazing. Obviously, Leila is cheating on her boyfriend with 203-- well, maybe not quite cheating, since they didn't kiss, but they did do stuff. And 203 thinks this is great, only now it has occurred to him that if Leila would sort-of cheat on her boyfriend with him, then she might also someday sort-of cheat on him with someone else. That is the problem with cheating, folks!
So 203 is worried. And he wants to know if Leila would ever treat him as poorly as she's treating her boyfriend. And he wants to ask. But how? Can he sit down with her and have a conversation about it? No, too forward. Can he call her and ask her? Absolutely not-- how awkward. I know! (203 thinks.) I will TEXT her! That is the perfect way to get at the root of her feelings! There's no way she can lie or dodge the question in a 160-character text message!
I make this point all the time, but now I will make it again: The things people are willing to say in text messages!

from a 425 phone number, Sunday, December 27, 10:32 PM
Guys. Here is what you have to understand here. This weekend I received five text messages from the 425 area code. AND NONE OF THEM ARE FROM THE SAME PHONE NUMBER. More to the point, only one of them is from MaYa! (I know, we thought MaYa had disappeared forever-- but, surprise! She has a slow learning curve.)
What is going on in Washington state?
At first I thought maybe these were all from MaYa, just using different phones. Like maybe her thought process was, "Clearly, texting Leila from my phone is not working. I know-- I'll try texting from Grandma's phone!" But look at the content: MaYa might say "hi what are u doing right now," but I doubt she'd forward on a chain text. Her messages tend to be boring, yes, but at least she always writes them herself. And she certainly wouldn't thank the cosmos for a stoner roommate. MaYa is a child. She doesn't know what stoners are.
So this means that multiple different people from Washington-- not a very populous state, I would like to add-- were texting Leila this weekend. The question is: Were they all texting the same Leila?

Look, if your mom has already put your name on a bouquet of birthday flowers to Leila, you might as well just claim credit. You're not morally obligated to be like, "Hey, Leila, I know it seems like I remembered to buy you a birthday present-- BUT ACTUALLY I DIDN'T."

303 must be a very good pet owner, since I think many people's first reactions would not be, "Fortunately, Scooby is not sick." They would be, "FUCK YOU, dog, for eating all my fucking food!"
Though this text also reminds me to say-- merry Christmas! I hope that you all enjoy your holiday and that it is not ruined by your dogs eating your groceries.

I found the article w your dad in the ny times online. I'M SORRY I CONFUSED ISLAM AND ISREAL i.m a dumb ass now i know.
from a 510 phone number, Thursday, December 24, 12:45 AM

I assume 510 and Leila once had come long argument in which 510 kept saying, like, "Leila, your dad's homeland was established in 1948! Your dad is fluent in Hebrew! He is! Stop arguing with me!" And then 510 read that NYT article and was like, "Oops, sorry, Leila. Your dad is Islamic, not Israeli. I take it all back."
Speaking of the NY Times online, did you all see that time an NYT blog linked to this blog? This happened a few weeks ago, but I don't think I wrote about it at the time. God love the NYT.

-MaYa-
from a 425 phone number, Tuesday, December 22, 12:42 AM
The MaYa messages have been going on for nearly two months now-- here are the very first ones, if you want to relive the glory. I know some of you have been hoping I never respond to her, just so we can see how the whole MaYa thing ends. But here's the thing: It was never going to end. This was just going to go on forever, and it was never going to get any clearer or more fulfilling.
So I called MaYa back. The six boring texts in 25 minutes just made me crack. I dialed her number, and I was all raging, "I am going to put this girl in her place! I am going to ask her why the hell she has been texting Leila for TWO MONTHS even though she should know by now that it's NOT WORKING! I am going to..."
Only here's the thing, and we all could have seen this one coming: MaYa is a child. She really doesn't know any better. And I don't have it in me to be mean to a child.
I called her and the first time she sent me to voicemail (VOICEMAIL, MaYa??? After all we have shared-- VOICEMAIL?), but then I called again and she answered. I started out strong and kind of annoyed with a, "Hey, MaYa, this is Leila. I've been receiving all your texts that you've been sending to your friend Leila."
She just said, "Okay."
I said, "Did you know Leila wasn't receiving your texts?"
MaYa said, "Yes."
I said, "But you kept texting her anyway?"
MaYa said, "Yes."
And this was when I realized I was a stranger, calling up a child and bullying her. That's not cool. Don't do that. So I didn't ask her what the hell she was thinking. I just explained to her that she needed to pull up Leila's name from her contact list, and MaYa said "okay" and "yes" a few more times, and then I wished her good luck and hung up.
We may never understand why MaYa kept addressing text messages this way for the entirety of November and December, 2009. It will just be an unsolved mystery.

Texts involving drama between the sender and recipient make sense to me, but once you start pulling in Jeffery and Kayla and Summer and “them,” I just get lost.

This doesn't make me think of the Bible. It makes me think of David Bowie.
In case you were wondering, here's Luke chapter 5 vs 1~10. Take away from this, you know, whatever seems relevant.
5:1 Now Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd was pressing around him to hear the word of God. 2 He saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gotten out of them and were washing their nets. 3 He got into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then Jesus sat down and taught the crowds from the boat. 4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep water and lower your nets for a catch.” 5 Simon answered, “Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing! But at your word I will lower the nets.” 6 When they had done this, they caught so many fish that their nets started to tear. 7 So they motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both boats, so that they were about to sink. 8 But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Go away from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man!” 9 For Peter and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish that they had taken, 10 and so were James and John, Zebedee’s sons, who were Simon’s business partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching people.” 11 So when they had brought their boats to shore, they left everything and followed him.

I just ignored it when I got this text, but I'm now realizing I really should have written back. As far as 312 is concerned, he tried to break up with Leila, and she just never replied. Okay, now I feel a little bad.

I just ignored it when I got this text, but I'm now realizing I really should have written back. As far as 312 is concerned, he tried to break up with Leila, and she just never replied. Okay, now I feel a little bad.

I googled "Leila Aye," and came up with an intriguing bebo profile from a guy who seemed to say something like, "leile aye I couldn't live without you." But when I clicked on the link to see if this guy really was connected to these text messages, his bebo page was so weighed down with Slayer videos and werewolf games that it crashed my Internet. So he may or may not have anything to do with this Leila. But I still hate him.

Intense friendship drama here. Sounds like high school to me. I would hope Leila forgives 808, since 808 is so thankful that Leila is her friend.
Okay, maybe people do use the word "thankful" on days other than Thanksgiving, after all. Guess I kind of negated that point.

I don't know what happens in this social scene outside, or why you would want to make sure beforehand that Leila will be there. I guess everyone has different afterschool activities.

This is almost the exact same text message sent twice, nearly a full day apart. The only difference between the first and the second version is the inclusion of the word "Verizon." It's like 702 wondered, "Why hasn't Leila let me know yet? Wait, I bet it's because I didn't specify that I meant the Verizon acct. #! I will fix that right away!" What a shock that Leila still hasn't replied, huh?

Apparently "amoo" means "uncle" (why this is in Urban Dictionary is beyond me-- it's Farsi, guys, not street slang). So I guess this means that Uncle Jan Nobari will pick Leila and Katie up. If Leila ever gets her act together to call 781, which, face it, she won't.

Yes, we're friends and babysitters from the 00s who dressed up as friends and babysitters from the 80s. So what.

If we judged exclusively from this woman's text messages, we would conclude that she is a mom to 3 but that her ENTIRE LIFE revolves around those three kids. I guess she must have a daughter named Leila, since the only thing she ever texts me is like, "When should I pick you up?" or "Am I picking you up?"

As an aside, I should mention that the Leila Texts has been named one of PC Magazine's favorite blogs of 2009. An enormous compliment, especially as that places this blog in the same company of Boing Boing and Buzzfeed. And PC Mag's list doesn't even include Gawker, implying (at least to me) that the Leila Texts are probably way more socially relevant than Gawker could ever dream of.
Thanks, PC Magazine people!

I'm going out of the country tomorrow and won't be back for a week. That means NO LEILA TEXTS. Until after THANKSGIVING. I know it's hard, but I think you can manage. Use this Thanksgiving as an opportunity to connect with your family. And if that doesn't work out for you, there are two and a half years of Leila Text archives to keep you busy.

from a 917 phone number, Monday, November 9, 7:59 PM
Maybe she didn't text Leila like Leila told 917 because 917's messages are COMPLETELY INCOMPREHENSIBLE and she didn't even understand that she was supposed to respond?

301 seems perhaps to be conflating two different speeches... Or, more likely, she's giving examples of classic opening lines.

25 to 20 us :) makell had another good serving run
from an 801 phone number, Friday, November 6, 4:44 PM
This is obviously about a sports match, and Makell is clearly an athlete on "our" team. But what team is that? The most common Makell to come up on Google (at least with a sports affiliation) is this guy. Except he is a high school football player in Maryland, so why would some kids in Salt Lake City be texting about him? So then I googled "Makell Utah" and came up with this girl, and I cannot even tell from this webpage what sport she plays, but it appears to be soccer, which does not involve "serving runs" so far as I know.
I love when the Leila Texts give me key pieces of athletic knowledge that I can then naturally work into conversation and come off as more well-informed than I actually am. But this one is not helping.

This person appears to be named La Trocha, which means "The Trail"-- very common nickname among Spanish-speakers, The Trail. The rest of it means "my friend did not believe me," but on what, and why, remains unclear. Perhaps The Trail is known as a habitual liar.

from a 781 phone number, Tuesday, October 27, 3:39 PM
This sounds to me like 781 had to interview Leila in French class today, and now her homework is to write up some French sentences about what Leila likes and does not like. Only they spent all of class dicking around (as you do, when your assignment i to work in pairs), so now 781 has to text Leila to find out what the heck she should include in her homework.
That is probably the most parsimonious explanation.

In my day, I have met many Pride and Prejudice devotees, but I don't think any of them have been obsessed with the film or TV series because of its soundtrack. Is that really the best part? I always thought it had something to do with the pretty dresses, or the fact the the protagonist snags a rich guy who's kind of a dick to her.

As previously mentioned in this blog, I am not exactly the world's foremost expert in languages. And this is even harder when Leila Texters don't include spaces between their words. Here's what I think this one is:
"Leila te dio el mandado la paty? contame si?"
Which would, to translate further, probably be:
"Leila, I gave you the something the something? Something me, yes?"
Oh, screw it.

Also, this is one of the most coherent series of texts I've ever received. It tells a story. When this sort of thing happens, is that best part about my job. (And by "job," I mean, "receiving text messages," which is actually not my job.)

hair dresser FWD: Eid mubarak to you and your family may this day bring you lots of barakat hapiness prosperity and sucess from ghesani family
from a 770 phone number, Sunday, September 20, 5:09 PM
This text was sent during Rosh Hashana, and "barakat" could be a transliteration for the Hebrew word for "blessings," so I'm willing to say this is a "happy new year" text. Only what's this "eid mubarak"? Any fluent Hebrew speakers with a penchant for transliteration out there?

I think this Leila is a doctor on the basis of 1) The first Leila Duling I find on google is a doctor, and 2) Don't doctors use phrases like "she can call office on Monday" and "I will prob start with scan"? Those sound doctorial.

Jeez, 208, you already asked me once. You don't have to ask again, an hour and forty-four minutes later. And you don't need to add in that you're not feeling "to good." If I had paper plates, I'd lend them to you, even if you were feeling healthy. But I don't. Okay?

Based on what we already know about Clubkid and Leila Marie, I'd guess that they are indeed best friends, and that these middle two texts (the ones that start with "FWD:") were sent to Clubkid from some guy. A guy who's really into her. Because "other people are just people" is a totally sweet thing to say, and, in answer to Clubkid's question of "what does it mean when he says 'i am very attracted to you physically'"-- uh, it means he's very attracted to you, Clubkid. It's a good thing.

I love when schools try to make something incredibly dull sound incredibly exciting by naming it like "study island." It's like how, at my office, if we want to check status of orders, we have to log into a website called "Oasis." The homepage of Oasis pictures an idyllic oceanfront palm tree, but what "Oasis" actually stands for is Order And Shipping Information Services.

Sorry, dear Leila Text afficianados, for the lack of updates over the past week. I have been very preoccupied because I just SOLD MY FIRST NOVEL. It's called Wayward Girls and it will be published by Simon & Schuster in fall of 2010. My novel has almost nothing to do with text messaging, except that in one scene one of the characters sends a text. Still. I thought you might want to know, anyway.
Other than that update, life remains the same, and texts of congratulations intended for me come interspersed with texts asking other Leilas where they left their bio textbooks, or whose turn it is to pick up the kids from soccer. So let's get down to business.
Are you with your dad this weekend coming up?
from a 508 phone number, Sunday, September 6, 11:26 AM
I just hope this isn't sent by Leila's mother. I like for parents, at the very least, to know their own joint custody schedule.
