Trying to settle into a new place - and all the practical things that entails - is like those elaborate dominos tracks. You have to stand the pieces up just so to make sure that when the first falls, everything that follows comes down at the right time, gracefully and with the minimum of effort. Of course, there are those occasional gaps when the run needs another push, because you left too big a gap between tiles, or the bend you designed was just too rad. C'est la vie.
