You forgot one specialty
Salt Water fish, why not start working at a high end store and maybe you could even get some gigs setting up/cleaning tanks for people, then if your really lucky you could destroy some foriegn Jigalo's tank and have to become a man ho to pay for the repairs.
Wait, that sounds like a movie...serious bout the first part though :-)

hmm, emphasize what you want to do on the resume -- the skills that make you
specially suited for this profession -- indepedent, ambitious, self learner, do-it -yourselfer
You may have to think outside the box on reorganizing the resume -- and then with a cover letter showing how all the skills you've accumulated make you ideal for this job -- or stating that while you did the IT because you were talented, your true interests have always been in this particular area -- some ideas.

Start an association: The Clumsy Attention-Deficient Smartasses of America, or something like that,
charge $50 for a 3-year membership, put out a newsletter, and you're off and running. A few hundred members and you're well on your way to financial independence.
If that doesn't work, how about tele-evangelist?

"Well, not to drop names but a certainly celebrity who dined here recently (rhymes w/ Dennis
Hopper), said our pate of fawn innards was the best he'd EVER had... 'An orgasm served on bone china' was what I believe he said."
Cha-ching: One pate of fawn innards $59.95 x .20 (pretentious bastards always tip well!) = $12.00 you didn't have just trying to "sell it" on the boulevard! ;-)
