Turbulent weekend!

Well what can I say - the weekend went well until Sunday afternoon then it was a disaster.
Continued doing well until 4pm Sunday and was up to about $650. Then the biggest downswing ever! Lost half of the bankroll playing only $5, $10 and $20 tournies.
Was up to about $650 and just before going out for dinner I did 4*$20+2 9p SNGS - lost all of these. Ok not too happy but not too bad.
For the rest of the night did 20 18p SNGS - about half of them $20+2 and only managed 2 minimum cashes! I don't know what was wrong - I bubbled quite a few - the question of being aggressive around bubble time remains open for me - I have scraped into the money many times while others knock each other out - I did play quite aggressive and open shoved a lot but it didn't work well and I kept getting called! I had a lot of bad beats as well and was on tilt also so lost early in quite a few.
So my favourite tourney the 18ps is complete for the 50 and back to break even. Still have to do 10 45ps and 6 9ps and the challenge will be over. Going to be tough to make it to $500.
Was very annoyed last night but tried to console myself by remembering that this is all off a $30 deposit and at least I stuck to the bankroll management rules and didn't tilt the whole lot off. I was VERY tempted to stick the whole $300 into a cash game at the end of the night but managed to haul myself to bed!
Closing roll $310.
