It sounds to me as though you were both burned out on trying for the night and you were slightly panicy about the whole situation. Next time, remind yourself you are OK and that there's no need to panic. Also, be patient with yourself. Nobody gets it on the first try. Keep trying and you'll eventually reap the rewards.
