It probably is the best alibi to cover for the unstoppable urge of talking to yourself while programming. Well, though - just given that - you aren't necessarily crazy :)

"might reflect the reality of a genius"
Calm down, that's all we are folks, even if pair programming with an invisible rubber duck at home. Makes sense.
