After a long (LONG) break from the game I came back and have focused nearly entirely on leveling with my Paladin. Tonight, I reached level 80. But I'm pretty clueless as to what direction I should head next.
What should I be doing now? And where is a good place to find out more about whatever it is?
Right now I am suited up in quest greens and have nearly no gold (spent on epic flying mount).
My eventual goal is to exceed at PVE content to the best that I can given a somewhat erratic schedule (probably not hard-core raiding). I'm currently ret but would like to dual spec, probably with holy.
Thanks! And it's good to be back.

Start running regular instances and then heroics, work on getting exalted with factions to get gear, do the argent tournament dailies to get lots of cash and some nice gear. Work on professions if you like.

Sit at an 80 combat dummy and test out your DPS. If you can pull over 1300-1500, then you won't be 'carried' (relatively speaking) through the lower level heroics, though you may be left out of the 'farming' groups. Utgarde Keep, Nexus, Drak'Tharon Keep, maybe Violet Hold.
If you're doing a bit less, then what you might consider doing are high level non-heroic instances - Halls of Stone, Halls of Lightning, Utgarde Pinnacle. Alternatively, gearing up through reputation rewards, or by purchasing some blacksmith-crafted epics. A Titansteel Destroyer will take you into Naxx happily enough.
Edit: Alternatively, run normal instances of the 'easy heroics' listed above - this will help you to get familiarised with the boss mechanics and the general layout of the instance, as well as the strategies generally practiced.

I've given it some thought and I'll definitely go holy. All my (crappy quest) gear is ret, so I'd be hopeless for now.. but I'll try and snatch some holy stuff while I get rich enough to dual spec. Didn't take too much effort to get the gold for the flying mount.
