Congratulations; like the others, I'm happy to have been wrong.

Now, go back and reread the first page of the thread, as a couple of the posters (not me) had some excellent advice on how not to alienate your colleagues on day one. - DvF

White smoke finally on the fifth (or was it sixth) ballot!  Congratulations.  However I think you can kiss goodbye the decadent laziness you were enjoying a while back.  And just remember, you wanted this job.  I hope the enthusiasm is long lasting.  Much success in the future.

Thanks for the good wishes and the fun notes, everybody!  And yes, I promise to remind myself every day, "YOU were the one who thought this would be a good idea!" 

Or, to quote my non-academic husband when I told him I got the job:  "Oh, s***."
