Excellent idea. Happiness comes from a feeling of control in our lives. By taking action (in sending resume out), you get a sense of regaining control. On the one hand, you don't have to take any job that comes along. On the other hand, you might be very surprised at what comes your way.
I highly recommend looking for positions (if possible) where you can increase your salary. After all, if with just 1-2 years to go to ER, any jump in salary will serve to decrease your amount of time to ER. At a minimum, I recommend counteroffer at $10K over whatever is offered. Most they can do is say they don't have the budget for your counteroffer. Then you simply say ok and accept their initial offer (if you want it).
Go for it. Worse that can happen is you'll feel like you've regained some power by testing the market.
