I re-upped this morning and recieved an e-mail confirming the transaction.  
I then recieved an e-mail about 30 minutes later saying that I had two days left to re-up.

I suspect that I successfully completed the re-upping but somehow an e-mail was already scheduled to be sent out saying I had two days left.

Can someone confirm that this is the case, or do I need to confirm that my confirmation was confirmed?

I started this thread in case anyone else has this happen to them.  
Admins?

Click the “User CP” near the top of any page. Select “Subscriptions” from the menu running down the left side. Your expiration date should be shown on the resulting page. If it has an '07 date, your fine. If not, you need more help than I can give you.

The mailing list was drawn up last night so if you resubcribed after the mailing list was put together the situation would come together exactly as you describe it.

Upon investigation I see your subscription expires in 2007, so you’re good to go.
