Great question. I really love what I do at the junior high. I teach business and teen entrepreneurship. I love going into work in the morning.

But I loved my experience this summer. I love the thrill of writing, building, and seeing my code work. The creator's high.

My current plan is to take a year off from teaching next year and pursue an entry-level development job with a good local company. I'm only 27, so while I'm not sure development is the full-time career path I want to take, I definitely want to try it out. In the end, it will boil down to whether I enjoy waking up and going to work as much as I do now.
