Steaks taste good

I went to two BBQs today. I marinated about 9 small steaks this morning in an A1-Worcestor sauce mix. And then for lunch I ate two of them at the monthly Corda BBQ at Lindon park. Then I had a few more at Don's b-day party in the evening. They were much better in the evening, because the marinade had time to set in. I gave the rest away to party-goers. Before the evening BBQ, I should mention that we played our last regular season game against Hartman's ward. They actually scored the first point, and even went up 2-1 on us before we shut them down, 10-2. So they scored as many points as all the rest of the teams we played, combined. I played a little on my ankle, especially after they scored the second point, but not too much. I think the reason we went down had to do with some lazy D on our part (not gonna mention any names, Johnnie. Whoops.), which of course we quickly fixed. Oh, and Bryan kept throwing hammers over our cup that our middle-defenders (I'm implicating myself here) weren't stopping. Anyway, our ranking for the season was 4.75 out of 5, which earns us a "nigh undefeatable" rating (the best any other team had in any sport was 4.25), and means we'll probably be the number one seed with a first round bye. Oddly enough, I wish we weren't number one. It seems like number one seeds always get upset in tournaments. Anyway, there were probably about 15 or so people at Don's house after the game (my only complaint was there was a noticeable lack of eligible females there, Amy excepted). His house, by the way, is pretty cool. They've got a hand-built Sauna in a very old but remodeled barn in their backyard, plus a very big garden and pumpkin patch. After the BBQ we roasted marshmallows and stuff until about 10, when I left to go watch Spiderman at Sharolyn's. I had never seen it, and have to admit was pretty cool.
