| Since you play Zerg I can critique your play quite a bit and give hints and what not.

Just a few tips. I know you're just starting to play again, but these are things you shoudl work on from the beginning.
First things first, set your settings like this:
Don't worry about drone splits this low. Or even at all. Splitting drones only gets you more minerals if you stack them on the nearest at first. And even then it won't matter unless in tournament play.
Learn the hotkeys ASAP and start using those. Along with hotkeys setting units/buildings to hotkeys. Use 4 for hatches/5 for all queens and set toggle next base to Tab and use that. It's a lot easier to inject larva to each base that way. Granted these are purely player preference.
When moving out with your army, a move, don't just walk them.
Watch your minerals and gas too. Once you learn to macro you'll go straight to gold. You don't need strategies or build orders until you get to plat or so. Just drones, macro, and general knowledge of the game will win it for you until then.
Another thing, watch your saturation at bases. 16 drones on minerals is optimal. You don't need 24 until you get up to 3 bases and that should only be on your new base.
This is just from watching your first game against that Toss:
Make lings. Plenty of lings with roaches will get you passed those cannons. Lings surround them and roaches provide the brute force.
Your main was incredibly saturated the majority of the game, watch that and send them to your natural once you get it built.
Like I said earlier, enable the hotkeys in game so you can see them and learn them easier and you'll be fine. Just start watching your resources and macro up better and you'll be fine.
One other thing. Scout. I know you had your roaches burrowed at the bottom of his ramp for the longest time, but he could still slip a probe out without you seeing it.
I'll post more as I watch your games.

| I'll read that over in a bit, but i've just reinstalled sc2 so there a few things I'm forgetting. As for the hatches and queens I really would prefer to just click them, I like this.
