What To Do?

What To Do?
Recently, I've been going through some major life changes.  I find myself in need of a job that actually pays me (it's been seven years since I've had one of those), and hitting walls everywhere I go.  Through highschool, college, and beyond, for twelve years I waited tables and tended bar, and I've thought that's probably the best industry for me. The thing is, though, I live in San Diego County, where the servers and bartenders are all 22 and models.  I'm not a dog or anything, but I'm certainly no model, and I haven't seen 22 in quite a while, so I'm having a hard time there.  I've done admin stuff and I'm good at it, it's just that sitting at a desk all day sucks the life out of me.

I have several degrees in music, but I don't really want to do anything with them, not that anyone would hire me anyway; it's been 12 years since I graduated, doing nothing with them so I'm simply not qualified.  I also have a short, but relatively abundant, background in television news (again: not a model) and radio.  I've often thought I'd make a really good preacher, but my lack of  belief sort of screws me there.  Does anyone have any ideas?  I don't really have time for schooling right now; I need a job... like two weeks ago, but I have very little direction and very few ideas about what to even do.  I'm also having anxiety because I have very little confidence and I'm going through a major depressive episode right now.  I'm hoping someone can help me with with something epiphanic.

Also, a little further information: I don't need some great career, and I more than likely won't have to do whatever job it is for long. It would, however, be great to find something I want to do even after I stop needing to do it.  Though, I'm much more comfortable volunteering my time rather than having to bring in a paycheck.  I suck at money; we hate each other.

Thank you Smile
