Well, you lucked out totally.  I know plenty of veterans in the field who 
never went back, because their extended unemployment ran out centuries ago.

I was last laid off April 30, two months ago.  I decided to leave behind the 
computer field.  I was doing PC tech/network administration/Linux system 
administration.  I was only three years into the field.

I'm making my way back into music.  I know I'll have to have a day job some 
where to help keep some bills paid and improve my drum hardware.  So far, no 
part-time job (p/t work is what I'm lookinng for now).  I don't know that 
I'll ever go professional (would be nice, but I have a habit of turning 
entire professions into stone), but at least, I have fun playing and being my 
best.
