I do pseudo code sometimes too. I notice that your functions/methods/whatever are verbs that are assigned to nouns. It reminds me of:

Verbs in Javaland are responsible for all the work, but as they are held in contempt by all, no Verb is ever permitted to wander about freely. If a Verb is to be seen in public at all, it must be escorted at all times by a Noun.
