Sounds remarkably similar to my life in my early 20s.
Get out. Now. I spent about 5 years in a job that initially taught me a lot about a lot of different technologies, but I peaked very quickly. I felt like I couldn't leave, however, since I was easily the most technical and was responsible for lots of disparate systems. So, I would go to work and spend 95% of my day chatting on IRC and 5% of my day writing a solid chunk of code that made it look like I was busy.
The biggest regret I have is that I spent at least 2 years too many at that job before I grew the balls to change my life. Don't waste another day of your life rotting away in an environment that's doing nothing for you.
