The good news is that I already have a job (have been teaching for three years already). I have been teaching with a temporary license b/c I have a degree in English. I just had to go back to school and take a few education courses and the Praxis II (two separate tests), which is a pain. Now all I am doing is waiting for my contract to be renewed.
Best of luck to you on your job search. I've noticed that more rural areas are always in search of teachers, while urban/suburban areas seem to be getting rid of teachers.

Congrats to your son's GF, Dave.
:-) I know people who have taken the Praxis tests multiple times and still have not passed. It is definitely a stress reliever when you pass.
