Change industries. There's plenty of work to be done elsewhere. I find as a consultant, if your'e not vehemently working on a project with gate due dates and go-lives, you're learning up on the technology and best practices to take to the next client. Never a dull moment.
That said, I wouldn't take a higher-paying job and be a PM or something; the difference in pay is not worth the extra stress, and I'd rather switch off when I get home and not worry about a thing. That's really living.
