I don't ignore the alternatives, but I certainly don't have the time to dive into every language of the month so that I can add them to my tool belt "just in case".

And, of course, even if I had them in my tool belt, I don't know too many companies that will pay what I'm making as a .NET developer to work in a language I've picked up on the side.

If there's another way, I'd love to hear about it.

No, it's basically the same route I'm on I put more effort into sharpening my .Net skills than any other. But if I see something that another technology will do I try to integrate it just to get familiar (like Node for instance).

The ASP is trying to hard to integrate other stuff into it, and I think few people deep dive into .Net and Rails, node, etc combined but it's a definite strength to have some familiarity.
