I'm in the same boat Camel. :/
I am a bit better off, in that I spent $3 for a money order instead, so it should be fairly instant.  I'm a lazy SOB though, so I didn't get around to sending the thing until Tuesday.  I'm in Canada, but I sent it priority mail, so it should be fairly speedy.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my account will get pumped up by the weekend.
Go, US Postal Service, Go!
