Dear Team Regina,

Happy almost summer! I hope you are getting more sunny, dry days than we have had here in the last few weeks in Ringoes. But, the rain has produced some amazing blooms and verdant green grass.
Last month, Regina’s trip to the Met Gala created a bustle of activity. The hubbub and fanfare from her fashionable foray in New York have quieted, and things are returning to normal here. I am happy to report that our darling diva made a huge splash in the Big Apple and returned to us eager for rest and relaxation, along with the mandatory adulation and acclaim.

Staff bowed down to her Royal Highness, and a complete regimen of high-end spa treatments began. Lengthy massages gave our girl an opportunity to both relax and share her tales of fashion glory with those required to listen.
We also began a series of body treatments more commonly referred to as ”evening back-end baths.” Never a fan of this particular procedure, Regina endured it daily, perhaps only because it afforded her more time to talk about her recent exploits.
You see, Regina gets a bit nervous when leaving her suite and the Quinn’s Corner lobby, so staff performed treatments in her suite’s small sink. For Regina, this was abysmal, as the water temperature was terribly tepid. It seemed no matter how long the staff let the hot water run, it refused to get warm. Per Regina’s vociferous insistence, house management was duly informed of this major spa faux pas. Rest assured, it will NOT happen again.

Fortunately, Regina’s new prescription, GI-formulated diet has her digestive system in much better shape, so she is keeping clean. Evening baths will now be performed on an as-needed basis. Thank goodness! Regina is happy to put this one spa treatment in her rear-view mirror (no pun intended), even if it means she has less time to name-drop and tell us about her every moment at the Met Gala.
The newest members of Regina’s suite, Kitty Purry and Leonardo di Catrio, are picking up the slack. Regina has embraced the pair as the latest additions to her entourage, and they seem eager to share in all her tales of glory. In fact, these young adolescent cats are quite the little social climbers themselves. With such Hollywood names, how could they not be?
Leonardo is still a bit reserved, so he often keeps to himself, but energetic Kitty Purry is ready for anything and tries to engage Regina in play. Regina is still assessing the situation: Just how far should an established diva involve herself with a potentially competitive young ingenue who, for now, seems to adore her? The jury is still out while Regina makes up her mind.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Regina is quietly eyeing Leonardo to be her bodyguard. Youthful, strong, and very spry, he is also quiet, reserved, and knows how to keep a secret. And Regina is more than a little astute: She plans to grab him up quickly, before Kitty Purry even thinks twice about giving her some competition.
In the meantime, Regina has been enjoying some solarium time when staff and volunteers open the door for her. We know she can open the door by herself quite easily, but why should she when so many mere mortals are willing, eager, and able to do it for her? Any diva certainly knows that!
That’s our wonderful and wily little diva! Thank you for your steadfast love for Regina. You make it possible for her to live a beautiful life.
Your correspondent,
Tina
