Grinding up from the bottom

First day off to an ok start. I had a headache when I stared playing but I put it out of my mind. After my first 500 hands I was up 2BIs but then things went sour. My head was getting worse but I pushed through. I got it in with AKo pre against AA and lost $13 then I lost a couple more hands, the most interesting being:

 I am not sure about my squeeze on the flop. I think its gets fold equity against their weak ranges and most opponents have to think that I am quite strong because I am c/r'ing 2 people. However, it seems like the CO is a station so it might not have been good in this spot. On the turn I should probably of given up and I definitely should of given up on the river as I dont think this guy would fold a pair here. 

Anyway after 966 hands and down $11.30 for the day I quit to nurse my wounds and went to the pub. At 9pm I heard there was a good game at my local casino so I went and I saw this young arab guy going all in blind for 100BBs every single hand! Everyone was getting rich. I got on the waiting list but I filled this guy's seat when he left so no free money for me :( Anyway I stayed until 3AM and made £200.
