I've actually got a similar story.
There are absolutely no social studies teaching openings in the area, so (I may have posted a thread about this) I decided to take the Praxis for General Science in order to add to my certification. I signed up to take it in April, then put it off till June. By the time June came around, I had decided not to take it. I hadn't studied at all, and felt like it was a waste of time for a guy with something like 9 hours of science credits to try and pass this thing. The day before the test, I decided to go ahead and give it a shot. I just found out I passed it.
...of course, now all the science openings in the area are filled.
