from an 847 phone number, Saturday, September 26, 3:02 PM

Some of you aren't so good at pidgin English, so allow me to translate:

Are you coming here? I am going to Trader Joe's for mb (?) chocolate. Home before 4pm. xox

"mb chocolate"? Any ideas? Max Brenner chocolate, maybe?
the hills with kristin starts the 29th yay
from a 978 phone number, Friday, September 25, 1:00 PM

Sometimes I claim that the Leila Texts provide me my main source of conversational topics, but this may actually be true. 978 is referring to a TV show. Without this text, I never would have known that a new season of the Hills was premiering, or that Kristin is now the leading lady. Now that I know, I intend to drop this into conversation as often as possible. Thanks, 978!
Heyy. What did your mom say!? And are you going to shannons saturday?
from a 508 phone number, Thursday, September 24, 7:10 PM

Heyy if you go to courtneys bring 7 of the 9 dollars you owe me from mini golf! I forgot to bring some.
from a 508 phone number, Friday, September 25, 5:20 PM

Leila! can you ask jess if i can use her glasses! I forgot mine at home.
from a 508 phone number, Monday, September 28, 6:31 AM

Heyy! Did dylan say anything to you!?
from a 508 phone number, Tuesday, September 29, 5:42 PM

Heyy! Text shawn and ask him if crystal asked him to bvt homecoming!
from a 508 phone number, Tuesday, September 28, 8:28 PM

A few things we have learned about 508 and her Leila:

1. They have a very happening social life. (Between Shannon and Courtney and Jess and Dylan and Shawn and Crystal, I cannot keep all these kids straight!)

2. BVT is a school in Upton, MA, so 508 and Leila must live around there.

A few things we still don't know about 508 and Leila:

1. What did Leila's mom say!?

2. Did Dylan say anything to Leila!?

from a 646 phone number, Wednesday, September 23, 5:39 PM

Thanks! Though it would take a whole lot more than good luck to inspire me to play a bball game!

from a 631 phone number, Wednesday, September 23, 7:28 AM

Is it just me, or does anyone else really want this text to be a version of im in ur blank, blanking ur blank?
call me after work need advice and moral support please
from a 915 phone number, Tuesday, September 22, 12:59 PM

Whoa this sounds like a big deal! I wonder what's wrong? I wanted to call and "offer moral support" and get all the good gossip... but that would have been really weird, so I didn't.
ur dentist appt has been rescheduled for another day
from a 402 phone number, Tuesday, September 22, 11:15 AM

Is this how dentist's receptionists are now alerting patients to scheduling changes? Ladies, that is some next-level laziness.
Hows the floor?
from a 678 phone number, Monday, September 21, 4:00 PM

I was hoping 678 meant "the dancefloor" so I could text back and be like, "It's bumpin'!" But I don't really think that's what 678 meant, at 4pm on a Monday. Also, "bumpin'" is not a very cool thing for me to say.
hey, could u email me(or whateva) the list of verbs we're supposed 2 conjugate(sp?). I think i left the list @ my grandmothers when i was there...thanks
from a 781 phone number, Monday, September 21, 3:51 PM

781 actually spelled "conjugate" right. Never doubt yourself.
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?
Duling FWD: I can see her she can call office on Monday I will prob start with scan
from a 724 phone number, Saturday, September 19, 7:39 PM

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.
i made spaghetti if you guys want some
from a 937 phone number, Saturday, September 19, 2:16 PM

Yes! I always want spaghetti.
Hold on i have to eat im going to talk to u later on
from a 757 phone number, Saturday, September 19, 1:09 PM

from a 757 phone number, Saturday, September 19, 8:59 PM

I am going to bed, hopefully, once I finish typing up all these texts. Where u going, 757?
Do have any paper plates you could bring over this eve. I am fresh out.
from a 208 phone number, Friday, September 18, 9:02 AM

I and I am not feeling to good. Do you have paper plates.
from a 208 phone number, Friday, September 18, 10:46 AM

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?
We identified the properties of math. dont worry it wont b on the quiz tomorrow
from a 973 phone number, Thursday, September 17, 4:17 PM

sorry but i have gymnastics tonight. but we will c each other over the weekend
from a 973 phone number, Friday, September 18, 3:57 PM

what is the studyisland assignment?
from a 973 phone number, Saturday, September 19, 8:33 AM

I relate to 973 because I, too, when in high school, did gymnastics and thought a lot about what would be on the next math quiz. But this study island thing has got to go.

Clubkid

from a 775 phone number, Sunday, September 20, 1:24 PM

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.

from a 516 phone number, Sunday, September 13, 11:15 PM

It was only because of this text message that I even realized the VMAs were occurring.

from a 703 phone number, Sunday, September 13, 10:34 PM

It's possible this is the only time to date that the word "homeslice" has appeared on The Leila Texts blog.

from a 516 phone number, Sunday, September 13, 12:36 PM

A google search for "cranbury" + "fern rod" turned up nothing, so I give you. Your thoughts?
marie you awake
Clubkid

from a 775 phone number, Sunday, September 13, 5:02 AM

I guess being awake at 5:02 AM is a good indicator that you truly are a Clubkid. Deserved nickname.
