Dear Diary,
Tonight was my birthday ball. Once again, nearly all of the same dignitaries showed up as did last year. Most of them I remembered. They told me that that was a sign of a good ruler. I smiled politely and thanked them obviously, attempting to make friends.
Tom showed up. Again. He looked quite handsome for a change. He wore a black suit instead of his trademark white suit. I was surprised to see him actually, for how rude I had been to him so many times. Of course I was cordial, but my heart still belongs to my Earth boy, Marco.
My gown tonight was actually quite lovely for a change. It was light pink, with a sweetheart neckline, and off the shoulder sleeves. I was surprised at how light the skirt was also. Granted, it was all tulle, it was still slightly heavier than most of my day dresses.
Speaking of, my wardrobe had quite the update. Nearly everything was purged and replaced with elegant dresses that fit every occasion, should it arise.
My handmaids are quite attentive, as I had been assigned four. Andromeda, Cassiopeia, Lea, and Aquaria. They were all named after constellations in the sky.
