For a friend of mine a B.A. in English recently converted into writing the LSATs and trying to get into law school (the fruits of which effort will soon be revealed). This after making various stops along the way, including: English Instructor at Concordia, mountaintop running in various locales across the world, and vetting subtitles for television shows.
so ... seeing as you've already done teaching, there's always law, subtitles, and long-distance running.
My wife was a grade-school English teacher for 6 years (3 in the public system, 3 in the private system) with a BA in English and Anthropology. Last year she left teaching to pursue cooking school -- she enrolled in a private chef's college and took courses at a community college as well. She even went so far as to take, briefly, a part time job at Williams-Sonoma (which didn't last long enough for us to cash in on the employee discount however). She would have continued with cooking if pregnancy and now a 3-month old had not intervened.
So, you could add cooking and motherhood to the list above.
