I know exactly where you're coming from. There's a huge difference between doing something you love as a hobby, and doing it because you have to for your job. For me, writing software for fun completely lost its appeal when I was doing the same thing day in, day out, for a job. That's why I enjoy my part-time study of Egyptology so much - it's a complete and utter change from what I do to make a living.
