It is not a single life-changing moment, but a series of slow dance moves closer to the right people and ideas. Two steps closer, a pause, then two steps closer. The dance has become familiar and comfortable and I am really happy with where it is all going.<\/div>\n<div draggable=\"false\"><\/div>\n<div draggable=\"false\">Negotiations with exchanges are ongoing and fruitful. More people are finding Geode and coming onboard. Our development team for the Fall semester is settling in and planning some exciting projects. Life seems oddly comfortable for as much is happening.<\/div>\n<div draggable=\"false\"><\/div>\n<div draggable=\"false\">I think I know why.
