Well, looks like I don't have to turn down the job after all......I was supposed to hear from them by last Friday, and there's nothing in the mail or my E-mail nor has anyone called. It's just as well. The job starts Dec. 9th and there would've been a week's worth of paperwork and orientation beforehand.

I just need to learn how not to overreach when I'm bouncing off the walls of the universe. That way, when the inevitable crash comes I'm not all disappointed and down on myself. I am depressed as hell right now (actually, I've been depressed for about a week) but I'm getting help for it. I'll be OK. Thanks folks, for your concern and for trying to make me feel better.
