Did you make a nandroid backup before you flashed. If so you can always restore that. If not, then shame on you. :) Kidding ... but seriously, ALWAYS make a backup.

Can you connect to the play store and download apps? If so, I'd recommend installing an app called WiFi File Explorer PRO (not sure if you need the pro version or not, but that's what I have). This app allows you to transfer files to and from your phone over wifi. So you could put the correct ROM on your phone and flash it. I don't have a Mac, but all this app does is assign an IP address to your phone that you go to in the web browser on your PC, so I would assume it works with Macs. You might want to Google it first to be sure.

I hope this helps. And seriously, next time, make a nandroid. :)

Not sure about the reader app vs the explorer. Whatever allows you to put the zip file for the rom on your sd card.

Once you get it on your sd card you should be able to boot into recovery, wipe data cache and dalvik, and then flash the correct rom.
