Dear Diary,

After the most embarrassing incident at Azkaban, I became my Death Eaters' object of ridicule. Of course Wormtail and Lucius hadn't been able to keep their mouths shut, and everyone was taunting me about my teddy bear shorts. It was unbearable. I had to add a new rule to the Code of Loyal Death Eaters to rid myself of this nuisance: From now on shorts printed with teddy bears are officially a part of the Death Eater garb, and everyone must wear them. It was most amazing how quickly they stopped laughing - just like magic!

The disadvantage, however, is that I can't induce my low-spirited Death Eater lot to carry out the next raid. They are afraid the wind could lift their robes and their victims might see the teddy bears.
