I needed to go into the city to do some business so I thought I would stop in on Monday at Meio Mundo. As I walked through the entry, the scent of old, musty locker room invaded my nostrils. Not in a nice way. At 5PM, there were lots and lots of cute guys. Well attended. Went to my locker and of course, smell was even worse. I can remember back to when the addition was new and the vinyl sofas in the lounge were unmmarker and a comfort to relax on. Now, missing legs and each with cracks and large sections of old foam visible. I do not want to even imagine what bacteria fester within. The last two times I have been there, the steam sauna was only luke warm. This time a bit better but certainly not scalding. And now for the past three visits the dry sauna has basically been the temperature of Farme on a summer day. Not to even mention all of the broken and stained wood. Missing wood protection around the heater. Of course, no hot water in the shower. Not absolutely cold like the other two, but what Brasilians call "agua morna" , we Americans would call cool or chilly. And once more, no soap in the dispensers. And of course, no bars of soap like the non-rent saunas provide. In the past, I have mentioned problems to Acyr. I've given up on this. Since Vinicius is no longer the manager, things have seemed to gotten worse. Although Monday's are well-atteneded, I think no more for me. Really easy to get to Praca XV there and back but I'd rather spend the extra Reais and be in a nicer atmosphere at 117. Last night I had a very nice programa and paid extra for one of the rooms. Still had one of the sheets that wouldn't cover the crappy mattress and a door that would not lock. About three months ago, maybe longer(?)right before Vini left, I remember that he had problems getting guys to even dance. He threw a sunga at one garoto to put on and the garoto threw it back at him. I suppose that the free entry in exchange for dancing wasn't worth it. Most have been a portent of things to come. Of well, I guess I'll have to try Pointe more often. And Tuesday's at Clube117. Last night's guy and Gabriel from the week before both work out of that sauna and were only at Meio Mundo for the Monday action. Besides Saunas Catete and RioG for non-rent.

But lookin, you could have called a friend over!
