Agree with the above comments. My suggestion is to stay employed, hopefully in the IT field as you complete a degree, if possible. My feeling is dropping out of the workforce as you pursue your education leaves you at risk of a possible poor economy in a couple years. It’s hard to predict what the economy and jobs will be like down the road. If you were younger, then a traditional full-time school schedule might be better.
As far as IT, see if you can intern and/or get tours and advice from some local IT companies. Maybe there’s a Microsoft, Google or Facebook office nearby. Expand your programming experience beyond JavaScript. My suggestion is know Visual Studio well, using stuff like aspx.net, C#, MVC, etc. Know a relational database (SQL and SQL server) and how to build apps that connect with it. Although I don’t like the product, know advanced features of SharePoint and its administrator functions.
Good luck.
