at long, agonizing, last

I went to check my status today, agonizing, and (already) feeling a little depressed, when, to my shock and surprise; license issued!

Now comes the REAL wait! Maybe it will get here by friday!

Well, if you don't get it by Friday...You might get it Saturday...And if it doesn't get there by then, then they might not send it to you until Monday...Then you'll have to wait till next Wednesday...

But if you don't get it then, then the whole process starts all over again...And you might not see it till Saturday after next...

Shut up Steve! :smilelol5:

Yippee!! I know you must be relieved. Gonna do the Wally Walk? I hope mine will be done soon, too. Same thing every day. I will be waiting over 60 days this weekend.

Actually, I had been checking every day, at least 4 times a day (just in case). I think that they must not update the website as often as they should... or the mail is reeeally fast.
Timeline is more or less as follows:

15 jul 07 packet received at dps
30 jul 07 pin received/'processing application'
1 aug 07 'application complete
2 aug 07 plastic in mail
