I really enjoy the insurance gig. I get paid to drive around and talk to people all day. Can't beat that. I make more money than I made programming too. Recurring commissions are a helluva thing.

I still tinker with computers, and am planning on taking an android development class next year to start playing with that. I put it all on hold when I had a kid though, my free time was pretty scarce, but now that he is 2, I'm starting to have more time to putz around.

I'm right there next to you... but I plan to be my wife's private cook and sex slave. Oh and full time house dad ;)

Good luck with android, it's overcomplicated as hell. Oh, and it's Java based.
It's not really the fact that it's Java based, Oracle/Sun Q.Q, but the fact that you have to manage every Activity separately, most of the framework libraries only allow you to run through one method (like onActivityResult), the debugging is horrible unless you use Eclipse but even then it's pretty bad compared to something like IntelliJ, and personally I'd rather code in assembly or C then spending my time figuring out that onActivityResult was needed for me to use an Intent correctly between two Activities (Events).

Code:
    @Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int RequestCode, int ResultCode, Intent Data) {
        super.onActivityResult(RequestCode, ResultCode, Data);
        if (Data == null) return;
        Validate(Data.getStringExtra("Data"));
    }
    private void Validate(Object __Data) {
        Object _Data = Data.Instruction + " " + __Data;
        int i;
        if (_Data != null && !_Data.toString().equals(" ")) {
            String[] Temp = _Data.toString().split(",");
            if (Temp.length > 2) {
                android.os.Process.killProcess(android.os.Process.myPid());
                System.exit(1);
            } else {
                String Source = Temp[1].trim();
                String Destination = Temp[0].split(" ")[1].toLowerCase().trim();
                if (Source != null) {
                    int x = 0, y = 0; String SDest = new String();
                    if (Arrays.asList(Data.Registers).contains(Source)) {
                        if (Source.equals("eax")) {
                            if (Destination.equals("eax")) {

Had to post twice because of the character limit but the point was that I could not split up the code into more efficient methods and functions because for whatever reason the onActvityResult method did not allow me to run through one method or function deep. I fucking hate it.
