Ten minute game

This is one game that I was very lucky to win. It also taught me that trading three pieces for my opponent's Queen is generally not a good idea...
In a short-sighted trap I set, I gave up both Bishops and a Rook to capture my opponents Queen. "Woohoo!" I thought as I took his Queen. Without thinking, I then immediately decided to exchanging Rooks, to try and quickly get to the endgame with my (what I thought at that time) "superior piece and position." Then the illusion was lifted. It was after the last exchange that I realized that Black was in a clearly superior position with a deadly attack in the making.
The only reason why I won this game is because Black blundered with 36...Rh3+??. (I believe that he was intent on checking me then capturing the pawn at h2, followed by the pushing of one of his pawns.) However, not only did 36...Rh3+ allow my King to escape, but more importantly I went from "being mated" to "threating mate" in one move! For Black, 36...Kh7 was the winning move. It would have trapped my King and mate would then soon follow: 37.h4 Rh3 38.Qd4 Bf3+ 39.Qg4 Bxg4##
