Love u DORK! Now ur on the clock! In 9 minutes somethin will make u happy but u have to send this to 10 dorks. Hopefully im one.
from a 419 phone number, Friday, May 16, 11:56 AM
The problem is, since 419 doesn't establish what this happy-making thing could be, it's really impossible to prove this claim wrong. Imagine if you spend all that time forwarding this text to ten dorks, and then in nine minutes, like, your dad tells you that lunch is ready. Now, lunch being ready definitely counts as "somethin [that] will make u happy"... but was it really worth the effort?

Hey all. my mum called. she got my flight tix. i fly home in 2 weeks. muy triste
from a 650 phone number, Wednesday, May 14, 3:56 PM
Where is home? No, I don't mean like the Bloc Party song. I mean, seriously, what country are you from, 650? The "mum" implies Great Britain, but the "muy triste" is Spain through and through. Citizen of the world?

FWD: Summer 08' Sneaking Out,Making Out,Hanging Out & Passing Out. What Ever Happens Happens No Regrets! Send to ten people or have a bad summer
from a 612 phone number, Tuesday, May 13, 5:55 PM
Well, I definitely don't want to have a bad summer, and I'm down with all this... except for the "Sneaking Out," since I am an adult and you can't sneak out of your own apartment, and it's not like my roommate is going to be like, "Where are you going, young lady?" Also, if possible, I'd like to avoid the "Passing Out," because that is generally not considered a healthy thing. So I guess I'm not down with all of this. I guess I'm just down with half of this.

from a 706 phone number, Sunday, May 11, 9:50 PM
The contrapositive of this statement is that if Leila DOESN'T call 706, then she doesn't love her. And of course, Leila didn't call 706, because she never received this text message. I wonder if, when they went into school the next day, 706 was like, "WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME?" Maybe they don't take it as seriously as I do. Or maybe they don't know what the contrapositive is.

hello is it me your looking for i am more obsessed with you than iraqis are with lionel richie
from a 724 phone number, Saturday, May 10, 11:47 PM
Are Iraqis obsessed with Lional Richie? Or is this as significant as saying, "I'm as hip as George Bush, Sr," or, "I'm more obsessed with you than giraffes are with oragami"?
It's like, Tropicana orange juice used to advertise (perhaps still does?) that a glass of OJ contained "as much potassium as a banana." And I was always like, "I don't doubt that, but just how much potassium does a banana contain?"

from a 951 phone number, Tuesday, May 13, 8:02 PM
Call me prudish, but I am not really okay with my girl friends telling me I am "100% sexy." 100% talented, great. 100% sexy crosses the line.
Also, this ringtone plan sounds very complicated, and Leila must have recorded one HELL of an awesome ringtone for it to be worth all that effort. My ringtone is set to be the same no matter who calls me. And that tone is "Ain't Never Been Cool," by Lucky Soul.
(AHEM Lucky Soul this would be a fantastic opportunity to SEND ME FREE THINGS as I am giving you FREE EXPOSURE here. THINK IT OVER.)

Hey le! Okay so i have been texting you and you would get it sometimes Idk but im at a cheerleading meeting right now so you cant call me
from an 828 phone number, Thursday, May 15, 4:46 PM
But yeah so im def "talking" to matt and aspen is not very happy about that but Idc.. i love you and i will call you in just a few! Oh and i did it! :)
from an 828 phone number, May 15, 5:51 PM
I would like to clarify that this 828 person is NOT the same as Jon from 828, since Jon helpfully identifies himself at the end of each text he sends. Also, Jon is presumably a boy, and this 828 really really like really seems to be a girl. I don't know if this 828 and Jon are texting the same Leila. That's the real mystery.
Anyway, as for this 828: I love that she says she's def "talking" to matt because, like, "def" means "definitely," whereas "'talking'" in quotes like that means "quote-unquote talking," i.e. "not really talking." So THAT'S confusing. I assume Matt is her ex or some guy she has a crush on, and Aspen is her current boyfriend. He must be, because otherwise where would he get off being all possessive?
Knowing effectively zero things about this situation, I would advise 828 to leave this Matt character well enough alone and show loyalty and devotion to her man Aspen. But I advise that mostly because there are a lot of Matts out there, whereas "Aspen" is a totally cool name.

Jon
from an 828 phone number, Thursday, May 15, 2:50 PM
Is it just me, or does Jon sound mighty miffed in that middle text message? I'm assuming the context there is that Leila had tentative plans to go over to his place, but then never called to confirm or deny these plans, and he has spent his Thursday night just sitting home alone, waiting for her to call, but she never did, and so now, at midnight, his evening wasted, he's texting her to guilt trip her.
Er, not that I have ever been in that position.
As for this "garden center" that is supposedly for sale, though... That is a position I have DEFINITELY never been in.

I have been out of town for the past week, and the upshot is that I have a LOT of new texts that I need to transcribe here. Like, my-inbox-is-full lot of texts. Let's get down to it.

That's from this person, the one with the run-on words. Come on, what happened to your personal writing style, 646? Did the school system beat it out of you? They do that sometimes.
At least the questions "Can I stay up late?" confirms my suspicions that 646 is A CHILD who is simply too young to understand the purpose of spaces between words.

should i go to grandmas
from a 951 phone number, Monday, May 5, 12:59 PM
Lot of texting going on about grandmothers recently, isn't there? Is it Grandma's Day or something? (I would imagine Grandma's Day would be a holiday, like Mother's Day, only 1) Grandmas are older than Mothers, and 2) Grandmas Day does not actually exist.)
Let this be a friendly PSA, though, that Mother's Day is this Sunday, so now is a good time to buy a Mother's Day card. I'm saying this because I care about you, not because my own mother reads my blog. (HI MOM.)

Hi all!!! Have been out of touch with everyone lately due to an intense work schedule & now have a new phone number. It is 347-xxx-xxxx. If you already h
from a 347 phone number, Sunday, May 4, 8:31 PM
ave this #, sorry. -Justin K.
from a 347 phone number, Sunday, May 4, 8:31 PM
Justin actually sent this text with his full phone number and last name, but this is me doing my small pathetic bit to protect the privacy of a man whose words I am broadcasting all over the Internet.
Anyway, I want to say a big THANK YOU to Justin K. for signing this with his full name, because do you have any idea how confusing it is to get texts that say "I have a new phone number" signed by, say, "Emily"? And then I have to text back and be like, "Sorry, is this an Emily that I KNOW? Is this MY friend Emily who changed her number? Or are you a RANDOM Emily?"
It's like the time my friend Jess texted to say that she couldn't come to my party, but since I didn't have her number stored in my contacts list, I disregarded her message as a Leila Text. And the next day I was like, "Dude, why weren't you at my party?" And she was like, "Uh, I totally texted to say I wouldn't be there."
WHOOPS.
