Maria is totally right. Job hunting is crazy (she says with an ironic laugh).

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I'm concerned. This may not turn out well, considering the current makeup of the Court.

Lawyer roommate linked me to scotus blog, which says basically they left themselves the opportunity to not really rule--they could let California stand where the appeals court had it (yay), but rule that people don't have the standing? Or something. So, left themselves an out. But still hopeful yet scared.

I called my folks when I went out to get lunch. Good news: no ranting about "the institutionalization". Bad news: my mother thinks she's going to divorce my dad.
My mind reels at the thought. Although California is a community property state, so presumably she wouldn't be left without an income...

Doesn't Kennedy usually side with the liberal wing of the court on issues of equality?

Kennedy has been increasingly unpredictable of late.

In other news, thanks to people being late with getting work to me the last couple of days, I was able to complete a side project that my boss was desperately worried about me being able to finish by next Wednesday. It would be crazy of me to turn in the finished work for review before Monday morning, wouldn't it? (I'm worried that if the editor has it this early she'll decide there are things she wants to rethink/change rather than just checking for errors. Which has already happened once simultaneously with me working on it.)
