Regional airlines specialize in turning single engine piston CFIs into airline pilots. You evidently made it through 121 training once, sucks about the furlough, so I’m sure you can do it again. However, you aren’t young and picking up new skills will be more work for you.

Put in an app at every company you want to work for and once you update it with your new RJ type rating calls will start to come in. you’ve only got about 12-13 years available to work in this industry so taking the slow and cautious route may be accepting the risk of being forever junior.
