Am I missing something glaringly obvious? Please tell me I am.

You are. If life gives you lemons, etc. What you need to do, instead of exploiting the fuck out of your town for your current interests, is aiming at exploring new interests.
Volunteer at an animal shelter. Learn to dance. Attend a gym.
It's not the case that you already know all the things that interest you.
