Welcome (back) to cycling!

I'd look for some fat tires too. If you don't want knobbys then look for "urban assault" tires, they'll have smooth tread, and be fat enough to soak up some major punishment.
I have some Kenda Kiniption 2.3" tires and they're pretty nice, It's fun jumping curbs and other stuff that I couldn't do with my road bikes.

Anyway, I think the best thing that I got for my bike has been a Wald wire basket. It's a pretty handy way to carry junk around with you.
