Am I spending too much time in front of the computer?

I am here in New York, seeing the sites and taking a little bit of down time.  Naturally, I have my laptop with me so that I can get my daily fix of chatting, blogging and emails in.  I was just chatting with a friend of mine, Simone Chiaretta, who made me realize that maybe I am spending a bit too much time in front of the computer.  He was telling me about an injury he had to his ribs, it happened when he was KiteSurfing and became worse when he did a bit of canyoning.   I just realized that the only way that I am going to bruise my rib is if I trip over my computer bag and fall onto my laptop. 

On a related note, I have been working here at one of the Starbucks in NY and have started coming here regularly enough to actually start to know some of the regular morning visitors (and a few homeless people) by name.
