You have a degree, which as you've pointed out, really only has a future in education or meteorology or such.
Have you considered being an Education assistant? It involves working with special needs children. It will mean more schooling (night and correspondence) but some boards will hire you while you take your schooling. Starting rate is $14 an hour as an on-call sub, gets to $20 when you're full time with benefits and the same schedule as a teacher (ie summers off). It's also an inroad into a teaching position.
Being a male, your chances are good, because they need male EAs, it's one of the few jobs that is sort of reverse-discrimination.
Check into it if you're interested.
