> My family, my friends, and my community. I coached HS and club swimming and water polo during college and it was so goddamned rewarding. I'd teach if it paid well. I don't have any outlet to give back to the community right now :(

This is what my gut is telling me. I feel sorely underdeveloped in my love life, and I'd like to start putting more of my time and energy into that.

Funny that you mention community--I do want to prepare some technical talks on this break. For me, that would scratch a community participation itch, though I didn't think about it in those terms before your comment.

Thanks for your reply and perspective!
