I think I've only done saunas, then, but I do the water pouring thing with pretty high frequency.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You can get dry heat in a sauna, you can't in the steam room.
I like them both, but I'm a fan of sweating, and sometimes I'm just too lazy to raise my heartrate to do so.
Mostly I stick to the hot tub.

Round here lately, I just go outside.
Really, though, they only hold appeal to me in the winter when I'm in a near constant state of chilled-to-the-bone or I've got some nasty head-invading disease.

Note to self: Go to Russian-Turkish baths for sauna. They have this awesome rock room with ice cold water to pour over yourself, so you can stay in there a long time.
I *love* that room. You can also pay an elderly Russian woman to beat you with oak leaves while you're in there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Of course, sitting here in my icy office makes the sauna sound much more inviting than it would outside. I think the perfect time to go to the baths is when it's like 65-70 outside, so you appreciate the hot inside, but can still hang out outside.

The funny thing is, walking around in the heat and humidity I get pretty miserable pretty fast.
I think it's a matter of clothing.

Fresno? Why does that amuse me so much?
I'm guessing Stamford has got to be due proximity to NY.
