I don't see what this is aiming to accomplish? Probably better to just extend down the side or tenuki.]
;B[gn]C[I was a little surprised by the fierceness of this counter.

White overplayed and black took advantage. White doesn't have any real cut or anything available.]

;W[lm]C[I actually was not sure if I should play this exact move, but I decided to not try be clever.
---
On a broader scale, notice how white's bottom group, which originally had a lot of potential following an approach to Q4, is now sealed in and small, and white has another weakish group in the making.]
;B[kr]
;W[qm]C[This is an unsure moment for white. Loosely approaching the corner was a bid to eventually weaken the upper right group-- strengthening white's position in turn-- it also seemed to be the case that if the central stones where attacked, any resulting black wall wouldn't be extremely effective.This logic is probably wrong, and I of course expected black to go against white's plan and pincer, anyway.I missed the reactivation of the ladder.
---
Incidentally, what do you plan to do about the hideous aji for the white group?]
(;B[mn]C[Unexpected.
---
Black had some shape issues and this fixes them. It also aims at cutting and attacking the center.]
;W[of]
(;B[mm]C[Is black's direction correct?
----
It's got kiai, certainly. Maybe black should just R12, though. It seems that as soon as the 4 stones are strong, black can set up some nice splitting attacks.]
