Off to a terrible start

The first hand I played was AA and milked 8,000 (out of starting stacks of 20,000) from a player with JJ. At the first break I still had 21,000, but didn't really feel in the groove and definitely wasn't having fun. Four hours later, I'm down to half my original stack, but oddly, I'm having fun again and like the way I'm playing. Things will have to turn around fast after the dinner break as we hit 150-300 blinds with 25 antes. Here's the plan:

1. Meditate
2. Shower
3. Change out of these clearly unlucky clothes--every article must go!

Go back and wait patiently for a good spot for a few orbits. If nothing's happened in 45 minutes or so, I will have to force the issue while I still have a chance to make them fold. If called, I'll probably be a 2-1 dog and have to get lucky.

Your positive thoughts are most welcome at this juncture.
