Praise the Lord and pass the vodka, I have a completed tenure application.
I estimated that it would be a medium-sized pain in the butt, but it was actually a pretty substantial pain in the butt. The pain is not over, because it will be reviewed by a departmental committee that will doubtless tell me to do some more things and some different things and wrangle with the unfriendly upload interface some more.
But for right now? I've done all I can do.
Congratulations! That’s a big step in the process.

Congrats! I don't know the proper best-wishes form for tenure application, so I'll default to what usually works for me: break a leg!

Woohoo! I'm raising a (non-alcoholic) vodka to clink yours: here's to benign committee members, with an aversion to changes and a wise appreciation for your undoubtedly brilliant publication list.
