Yeah, I think things aren't going to go great for you from here on out. Tbh I think things started to get a little wonky with 2...c6 (I'd have prolly gone Bb7 to get that B into play, which is what I'd originally assumed was the reason for 1...b6).
As to xg6 Qxg6#, I'd been focusing on Rg8 Nh8+ Rxg6 Nxg6 xg6 Qxg6#, saw something different and then somehow failed to notices that the endings matched.

In the last two days I have been out (and away from my chess boards) for almost the entire day. It will be the same tomorrow. Though I'm fairly certain I'm good after that.
