The I LOVE YOU game sounds even more boring than the Silent Game.

What are you wearing for tomorrow?
from a 774 phone number, Monday, May 18, 7:11 PM

I spend a lot of time trying to make my friends coordinate outfits with me. Monday both Emily and I were wearing sweater dresses. That was great. Tuesday we both wore fishnets. Wednesday Leslie and I both dressed in black and white, and yesterday Kendra and I both had on grey cardigans over black skirts.

Okay, to be honest, all of that happened coincidentally. I never actually texted any of them to ask what they would be wearing the next day. But wouldn't it be so 774 if I did?

hey are u mad at me please say no
from a 609 phone number, Monday, May 10, 2:52 PM

Is this the 609 who is always asking Leila to go skating? Has it finally occurred to 609, after months of Leila's not replying to her skating invitations, that she might be mad at her?

did any1 ask 4 me?
from a 973 phone number, Sunday, May 17, 7:58 PM

Nope. Sorry to break this to you, but you're not THAT important.

Here's one activity that could spice up your day: How about you learn to spell?

FWD: Dad is getting mad be hom by 1 30
from a 703 phone number, Saturday, May 16, 12:38 AM

I texted this person back to tell them Leila had not received this text because the last thing this Intended Leila needs is for her father to send out cops after her or to ground her for inadvertently breaking curfew or something. I am a Good Samaritan to Leilas.

Thank you for praying for me, Tang, since lord knows I wasn't doing it for myself.

from an 847 phone number, Friday, May 15, 12:26 PM

Do we think this is a mass text? From some cheap restaurant to a whole bunch of people? Is text message a common advertising campaign for restaurants nowadays? Is "Dressing" really a side dish?

r u doing anything on saturday?
from a 323 phone number, Wednesday, May 13, 11:24 PM

Yes. I was. I went to a parade, watched two movies with Kate, and attended three different birthday parties. So if you were going to ask me to hang out with you on Saturday, 323, you're OUT OF LUCK.

from an 864 phone number, Wednesday May 13, 8:17 PM

I LOVE SMOOTHIES. So I bet it was awesome.

I better get this back, I LOVE YOU TO PIECES like Reeses! Today is bestfriend day send this to 12 friends u cant imagine loosing
from a 513 phone number, Wednesday, May 13, 6:05 PM

This is not the first time I have been told that it's bestfriend day. Last bestfriend day was in August, though. Maybe this is a holiday that comes multiple times each year?

Are we walking tomorrow?
from a 619 phone number, Wednesday, May 13, 5:13 PM

Lots of texts about walking this week. I guess that's how you know it's springtime!

from a 928 phone number, Tuesday, May 12, 7:33 PM

Now I am at my home. A building, if you will.

Leila this is Sami!!! i got a new phone it's awesome!
from a 603 phone number, Tuesday, May 12, 1:51 PM

Why aren't you texting me! When you get a chance text me back.
from a 603 phone number, Tuesday, May 12, 3:44 PM

Hi leila!
from a 603 phone number, Tuesday, May 12, 7:29 PM

Leila isn't texting you back, Sami, because she hates you. I know this is hard to reconcile, but you're just going to have to cope.

Yo just got bac from walk w brit & ginger
from an 860 phone number, Monday, May 11, 5:16 PM

Brit & Ginger = friends? Or dogs? Cast your vote!

Happy mothers day. Feeling better?

Hey you, just wishing you a "Happy Mother's Day."
from a 413 phone number, Sunday, May 10, 9:44 PM

Feliz dia y bendiciones por ser madre las 24 Horas eleanor
from a 786 phone number, Monday, May 11, 10:33 AM

Happy (belated) Mother's Day to you all! At least to those of you who are mothers.

NIN on the 22!!! How excited are you
And Offspring at BFD! Hell yes!
from a 650 phone number, Friday, May 8, 7:05 PM

I've said this before, but I'll say it again: I just like when people are really passionate about music, pretty much regardless of WHAT music they're passionate about. Pretty much the only Offspring song I know is "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)," and I have no desire to change that, but, you know what, 650? If you're going to love the Offspring, you should LOVE the Offspring.

IN OTHER NEWS: This right here is the ONE-THOUSANDTH POST in the Leila Texts blog. Is this admirable or appalling? A major milestone in all our lives, or merely a small stepping stone on the path to greatness? YOU DECIDE.

Wait 4 me @ the bathroom
from an 808 phone number, Friday, May 8, 1:05 PM

A building
from an 808 phone number, Friday, May 8, 1:07 PM

This is why there's that stereotype about girls' need to go to the bathroom in packs. And I don't understand the text "A bathroom." Could this be answering a question? If so, what question? "Where are you right now?" "A building."

McPhee Great to hear ur song.soooo xcited 4 adam and so greatful that u r getting some good time with the grlz stress free (minus a tape worm or two) ;)
from a 713 phone number, Friday, May 8, 9:32 AM

I can't find a Leila McPhee on facebook or myspace. (I know no one uses myspace, but I checked just in case.) "Leila" and "McPhee" are not really of the same ethnicity. And tapeworms are revolting.
