By the way I didn't annoy them by calling repeatedly over and over. I called 3 times in 3 weeks, again because I never got a call back.

I called the supervisor back today as he told me to. I advised him that the individual processing my license did in fact call me this morning and told me that she issued the license and it was being mailed. He said hold on a minute... He came back on the line and said he pulled my license out of the outgoing mail stack and said he was going to send it overnight so I will receive it tomorrow morning! I told him that was very nice of him, and thanked him.

Took CHL class - 06/14/08
Paperwork received by DPS - 10/02/08
PIN Reveived by email - 10/15/08
PIN Reveived by mail - 10/19/08
Application still processing - 11/18/08
Application Completed - license issued or certificate active - 11/24/08

I wasn't really expecting it, but now I'm kind of hoping I have plastic in hand before I leave for Thanksgiving late Wednesday. I'm in Austin, and there are 2 days of mail delivery between now and then, so it's possible I guess...but maybe I'm dreaming :)
