Textatery

The person sending a text on behalf of someone else.

Since, in California, it is illegal to send text messages while driving, you need a Textatery. It is kind of like a secretary who takes dictation, except they send texts.

Example: While I was driving home I needed to send a text, so I had to dictate the message to my Textetary.
