Windmill Tactics in an amateur game

This was 10 minute blitz game I recently played as the Black pieces.  Overall, I think I did pretty well... the Windmill starts on move 24.  Any analysis or commentary is welcome.

i think if White had played pawn to h5 on move 21, White would have been winning?

Black played badly in the opening...but still, very nice job!

wow !!!!   I never remember having such an attack in any of my games, truly a classical windmill.    Congrats !!  

After awhile you have many good moves to win.   As played 31.....Rxa1 is fine and you're very much in control.    Worth looking at is continuing the windmill some more -- afterall how often do you get this motiff ?  with 31...B-d4 +    Looks like you would get both White's Rooks and his B, ie; 32 R-f2  Rxf2   33 R-b1, R-b2+ 

Having games like this is very enjoyable.   May you experience many more such games.

I liked the way you didn't waste any time simplifying for the win.
