GA pilot experienced an airspace incursion while returning from a practice flight. Pilot reported no...

Narrative:

The flight was to keep me current for both day and night flight. This covid-19 thing has kept me from flying lately. Typically I do this with a general currency flight that starts during daylight and ends at night; so I can get my 3 landings in. I also go through flight maneuvers as a part of the currency. That day I did slow flight; power on and power off stalls as well as steep turns. I was feeling a little disoriented so discretion being the better part of valor I decided to head back to ZZZ. My preparation for the flight was flawed: 1) I didn't protect my night vision 2) I didn't properly get the aircraft set up for night flying 3) I didn't have my firelight app set up [as it should] have been. When I headed back I flew through ZZZ class D airspace without communicating. I usually fly around the space and I didn't realize I had entered it until I looked down at the airport. It is very close to ZZZ1 and I just wanted to get the plane on the ground at that point.
