I mean, I love to listen to people play the fiddle, but I've never thought to learn it myself. The name you chose is perfect, of course ;). One of the dwarves probably had a violin in the beginning of the Hobbit, but who wants to name a musical instrument Dori? (I looked it up; Fili and Kili have the fiddles, for what it's worth.)
I had no idea you wanted to go into teaching. I highly recommend that career change! You're a motivated person, and I'm sure you'll do an awesome job. What do you want to teach? I'm a chemistry teacher myself :). The way things are now, you can sometimes get hired as a teacher and have the school pay for your classes (at least in part) as you work towards your certification. But that depends on which subject and which school, of course. I'd recommend taking a few classes first, so you at least know a little bit about what you're doing before you jump in with both feet. But seriously, if you want to talk teacher stuff any time, just let me know :).
