If you're a mom, it's great to be proud of your kids, but there comes a point-- like when you're referring to yourself as though you're married to them-- that it becomes slightly creepy.

from a 270 phone number, Saturday, January 29, 9:14 PM EST

This is the second reason this weekend for me to regret not owning a TV. The first reason was Shake It Up.

Hi what time r they going to show shake it up!!!!i really want to watch it because i havent watched it in long time because i was on vacation 4 2
from a 347 phone number, Sunday, January 30, 12:57 AM EST

I read this text message and said to myself, "I bet that Shake It Up is a Disney Channel Original Series," and by God I was right. I would have loved the shit out of this show when I was 14. In fact, I would probably STILL love the shit out of this show if I owned a TV.

Is it just me, or does that sig line border on hubris?

from a 949 phone number, Saturday, January 29, 12:01 AM EST

Your loss, 949. You just missed one of the world's great soccer games.

You can invite me, but honestly I won't go if Helena's not going.

from a 608 phone number, Wednesday, January 26, 4:05 PM EST

"I suspect that your mother is schizophrenic. I'm not sure how to break this news to you."

NO. No I cannot spend the night at your godforsaken house, nor can you spend the night at mine. I SAID NO, 541, LEAVE ME ALONE.

Peace love happiness
from an 832 phone number, Friday, January 28, 8:50 PM EST

See, 732? It's "Peace love happiness," not "Peace love Justin Bieber." Thank you, Molly, for demonstrating this.

i am sitting at hairdresser reading latesy time mag .. has article abouy ut concussions in ja 31 issue.in dr oz column on p. 52 it says fish oil can help
from a 646 phone number, Friday, January 28, 1:54 PM EST

I feel vaguely "used" here, like someone is "placing ads" in the Leila Texts, but I can't decide whether the ad-placer is Time Magazine, Dr. Oz, or the fish oil manufacturers.

Look at him stradle the chair! ewwwwww
from a 440 phone number, Friday, January 28, 9:25 AM EST

I just did a google image search for "guys straddling chairs" to see why this might look gross. I came up with one image below that looked fine. Everything else was basically taken from sex manuals.

Hey Leila, just got ur message. I would love to go! I'm scheduled to work that friday though, so I'll have to see if I can get a sub. Hows ur pla
from a 309 phone number, Thursday, January 27, 11:28 AM EST

Mines just getting black!
from a 309 phone number, Thursday, January 27, 11:28 AM EST

I wonder what 309 was asking Leila about. "How's your plant? Mine's just getting black!" "How's your plastic cutlery? Mine's just getting black!" Something?

barackman R u up its a snow day!
from a 917 phone number, Thursday, January 27, 7:18 AM EST

Cox SNOW DAY!!!
Peace~love~justin bieber~
from a 732 phone number, Thursday, January 27, 8:05 AM EST

On Thursday morning I woke up to these two text messages. What I did not wake up to was a similar message from, say, my employer. Grown-ups have no appreciation for snow days.

baRackmaN I hve 50 bucks in itunes and i just bought 9 new song wanna know what they r?
from a 917 phone number, Wednesday, January 26, 8:05 PM EST

Yes. I hope they're pop punk.

(: Are u gonna go to show offs?
from a 281 phone number, Tuesday, January 25, 9:12 PM EST

I have decided that the Shows Offs are a band that Leila might go to see. Maybe they are this band, which is from California and describes its sound as "pop punk." Of course you are, the Show Offs. Of course you are.

le abri el gate Leila le abri el gate
from a 909 phone number, Sunday, January 23, 11:18 PM EST

"I opened the gate, Leila, I opened the gate."

Except that "gate" in Spanish doesn't mean "gate" in English. So, that's a mystery.

Cox hey
Happy birthday me!
from 732 phone number, Sunday, January 30, 5:54 PM EST

"Hey, what's up. Just me, checkin' in. It's 5:54 in the afternoon on some day, I don't know, MY BIRTHDAY or whatever, and I hadn't heard from you yet, not even on facebook, so, you know, just wanted to say hey, in case there was anything you wanted to say back to me."
