Sorry to hear that.  We'll just stick to the thought that something bigger and/or better is on it's way for you.  As for the interview problem... now you know that you do this, be sure on the next not to hold back.  Always assume that they know nothing of your skills/abilities and just go for broke.  Sorry to hear you didn't get the job, but holding out the hope for something better (or for this other lady to leave it in her year ).

Hugs to you...  Don't let this affect your holiday.  Hold your family close and enjoy your Thanksgiving!
