I think this is common for any type of occupation at one point or another. I had this happen in High School when I was working both hardball and softball games and I went through a burn out period. Now that I've taken a few years off from calling games, I'm champing at the bit for the opportunity to do so again.
I've had the same happen with jobs that I've been working for a while and end up falling in a rut. This is one reason why companies offer vacation and time off, they know their employees need a break.
It sounds like you need to take some time off or at the very least, significantly reduce the number of games you're taking. I know you can't afford to but perhaps a change in your working environment is just the ticket. Jobs aren't just limited to retail and food service. Check your career center on campus, there should be many opportunities there for summer work. I would suggest seeking out a summer internship. I interned for a biotechnology company last summer and found the time spent to be rewarding financially, professionally and more importantly, personally.
Maybe the rest of the Spring off is just what you need.
Good luck TussAgee!
