Well.

Truffle centers taste pretty good undipped and help soothe the savage breast after a little job disappointment.

So does getting a cold call from a technical recruiter, and email from two local internal recruiters about promising jobs ("would you like to apply?"). And not the "we need a sharepoint admin in Phoenix", yet.

I think I'll make the spaghetti sauce and contemplate some more.

ETA: While chopping onions, I got a call from a fourth. And checking the email shows that my contact at SF Investment House has referred me along (which puts me on top of the queue). I should hesitate to call "it's a sign that I shouldn't be upset about the other one", maybe because I tend to overdo that, but I'm thinking the numbers are adding up on this one.
