It's a FFE into a +2 timing attack. Lost to it twice in a row, no idea how to beat it.
Tips? Advice?
(I know at one point I seem to have 1000 minerals or something that's one mistake so you can skip on that. Probably should start mining gas on the 3rd base)
I thought my droning was alright till the push came, so... what was the problem? Did I have to get spines? or another unit comp?

This is actually something I have horrible issues with myself, and after watching through that rep I was still pretty stuck for ideas.
Thankfully, PiG is baller and reviewed your rep already.
Choosing the quick third as a response to FFE means your build 'stages' need to be quite clearly defined. What I mean by this is that instead of gradually teching while you drone, you drone, stop droning, and then start teching. (this is how I interpreted PiG's comments about 'droning efficiently')
From what I gather, the problem in that particular instance was that you finished droning quite late because you started teching while you were droning, so you had very few units.
It might be better to try and hold that push with, say, 1/1 Roach/Ling, rather than trying to get Ranged Hydras and +2 ranged attacks.
Again, this is something I've had serious problems with, and I'm really just pillaging PiG's magnificent brain.
Go watch that VoD for intelligent feedback.
