Worst day ever...

After sitting here reviewing the hands from today's sessions, all i can say is WOW. I do believe this is the worse day I have had in poker since I began this journey 7 months ago. I do know this. I have not lost this much money in a single day.
Game play, overall I did well. I made 2 key mistakes. One was not really a mistake. It was just a gamble gone wrong. I limped from early position with a big hand. I was expecting the guy in the cut off to raise. He has been really aggressive from that position. Needless to say, he didn't raise. Result of it is, too many people were able to limp in. I hit a set on a draw heavy board. By the turn there was a 4 card straight on the board so I had no choice but to get out. By the river there was a flush that got completed aswell. Hate it when those gambles go wrong.
The amount of money I lost today is discouraging. I am looking for that to turn around tomorrow. I believe if the cards continue to run as they did today, I will be stepping down buy-ins till it changes.

This is something I doodled out during one of my cool off breaks during poker today. Yesterday being my wedding anniversary (10yrs). Today being Valentines day. Love was in the air, along with the smell of defeat.
