Talking to myself

When no one is around, I talk to myself.  A lot.  So, when my roommate left, I figured then was a good time for me to talk to myself about the methods homework that I need to do.  I hope that doesn't paint me as crazy, but I find it is easier to brainstorm ideas when I'm talking out loud, even if I'm talking to an empty room in the dark.

Luckily, that shit worked, and I think I have a workable idea for my paper.

My theory is basically going to be that if you have a bicameral legislature with an all-appointed second chamber rather than an elected one, policy will be both easier to pass, and more effective in that it causes greater change in society than with two elected chambers.

It is a theory based in institutionalism, and I really hope that it is original...  My fear is that my professor will look at it, stare at me, and say "...well yeah.  This shit's already been done."  And then fail me.

Bah.  Stressing still.  But at least I have an idea now.

Going to a Walking Dead party at 8:30 until 10.  I could use a study break.
