A narrow escape

This was actually a bad game of mine. I think much could have been avoided if I castled to the other side. I suffered much pressure and nearly lost the game, would have lost it certainly weren't for my opponent's lack of time that probably made him overlook a textbook checkmate. All in all still I take some pride of the beautiful ending. Tell me what you think. http://en.lichess.org/9SQKBoZj
Thanks for the comments guys. Now compare it to this other game: http://en.lichess.org/sP248DU5. Same openning, same opponent. What do you think? Castle to the king's side or to the queen's? Any good strategy against Nimzowitch? It's an openning that usually gives me the creeps.
Nice game! I think that castle to the queen side is better here. More opportunities, and you avoid dangerous king's position. Train this style, analyse it with machine))
