NL 100 - QQ Spew/Overplaying?

Just starting playing poker again after layoff. I think I'm overplaying AQ, and I'd like some input into how I played it here.

I think the preflop raise may have been too large for anyone to call that doesn't beat me. Maybe raise 8? The flop push seems ok to me. Any thoughts?

Overall seems OK.
As played You have no other option but AI on the flop.

I should say that my reason for thinking I'm overplaying lately is that I have run into AK/KK/AA a bunch lately after reraising with AQ so I am wondering if I am pushing too hard, even if I do suck out.

I'm usually calling this preflop. I used to standardly raise this but I always ended up spewing in big multiway pots. It might have been a result of poor postflop skills on my side (quite possible) but its working better for me this way.

How did you tend to spew? Did you spew with bets when beaten or trying to force others out? Want to make sure I don't do the same.

Last bump to see if anyone else has an opinion.
