from a 347 phone number, Saturday, February 12, 2:34 PM EST

Despite the typos, I understand exactly what 347 means. I think we all do. Except for those of us who are, like, Jerry Lee Lewis.
Hey. Sorry to bug you. But did you get my text. can you work tomorrow night. Unless you got a date. I understand. Just trying everyone. No one can work.
from a 209 phone number, Sunday, February 13, 11:14 PM EST

Gawd, seriously, 209? Seriously. You would even ask me-- Me, Leila, the most popular girl you know!-- if I could work tomorrow night? No, of course I can't. "Unless you got a date." Of COURSE I got a date. Is it a day of the week ending in "Y"? Then I'm busy. You should be sorry to bug me.

Justine whiten

from a 240 phone number, Sunday, February 13, 6:48 PM EST

I've actually received like a dozen texts from this girl over the past week or so, but I deleted most of them because they just weren't that interesting, and, you know, I only have room for so many texts in my phone's inbox. Anyway: No, I was not watchin the grammys. Were you?
Eating at Shipyards
from a 407 phone number, Sunday, February 13, 5:35 PM EST

407 is metro-Orlando, so this texter is likely referring to the Shipyard Brewport, located in the Orlando airport. I wonder if they had an outgoing flight, or if they just drove to the airport for some dinner and 'brew.'

from a 313 phone number, Sunday, February 13, 1:20 PM EST

What did Leila do yesterday? Burp the alphabet, or perform a drunken striptease?

from a 619 phone number, Sunday, February 13, 1:25 PM EST

I would also accept some iTunes cards, by the way. And some turtles tanning at Cal Tech. Please and thank you.
My mom wont let me have a facebook!!
I AM ZIM!

from a 248 phone number, Tuesday, February 8, 8:02 PM EST

While I'm of the mind that every good little boy or girl is entitled to his or her own facebook account, I'm going to have to side with Mom on this one. As long as you're calling it "a facebook," 248, you shouldn't have facebook.
FWD: Fwd: FWD: FWD:I love U! (: if u ruin this chain u will be single for 4yrs send to 10 buddiez &you'll get an unexpected txt in 5 mins -Usher is amzing
from a 607 phone number, Tuesday, February 8, 5:52 PM EST

Often I don't post simple chain texts because they tend to be unremarkable, but check out that sig line. "Usher is amzing"? What is this, 2001?

from an 856 phone number, Tuesday, February 15, 12:20 PM EST

856 and Leila seem to have an extremely loving romantic relationship. And also a large number of affectionate pet names for each other.
Were u mad at me today?? u didnt talk 2 me at all!
from a 920 phone number, Tuesday, February 15, 4:54 PM EST

Not only did Leila not talk to you at all today, but also now she is ignoring your text messages. What does this mean??

jesus luvs u and so do we. Pastos PASTORS RALPH AND NORMA.
from a 915 phone number, Wednesday, February 2, 3:56 PM EST

"Luv" seems like kind of a slender emotion compared with how I thought Jesus was supposed to feel about us. I mean, this isn't a candy heart or a perforated valentine.
R u there or at pony club
from a 240 phone number, Saturday, February 5, 11:10 AM EST

Do we think pony club is like the Saddle Club? If so, then, yes, that is where I am.

Where the F r u?
from a 317 phone number, Sunday, February 6, 7:14 PM EST

I want to hire 317 to write a book entitled How to Convey Complex Sentiments in As Few Letters As Possible.

Daddy is fine just waiting for a room.

It seems like a lot of people spent part of last week in the hospital...

barackman Cant text now goin to the mall with sam.
from a 917 phone number, Saturday, February 5, 1:59 PM EST

I feel like this chick would really get along with the 732 chick who I also hear from every day. This one seems less Justin Bieber-obsessed, but otherwise I imagine they'd have a great deal in common. I want to friend-matchmake them. In a non-creepy way.
wut wuz tht about
pump up da fruit

from a 330 phone number, Sunday, February 6, 12:08 PM EST

It's kind of like when you pump up the jams, only it happens before the fruits are made into jams. Like when they're still whole strawberries, or whatever.

from a 732 phone number, Friday, February 4, 9:04 PM EST

As much as I enjoy hearing about every single thing that 732 did last week-- specifically every time that she watched an episode of Nickelodeon's House of Anubis-- I think my favorite part of her week is when she got a bunch of Justin Bieber accessories at the mall. What about you-- what's your favorite 732 antic?

from a 413 phone number, Sunday, February 6, 8:21 PM EST

I hope you all had Superbowl Sundays that were just as fabulous as these Leila Texters (or not so fabulous, in the case of 413). Opinions on best commercials? Anyone?

Hey
Mz. 10 Year Old

from a 678 phone number, Sunday, January 30, 1:06 PM EST

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.
Us skating championship on tv now
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.
