Keep changing the environment

I like changing things every few hours: changing chairs; changing the way I sit; changing from the Kensington to a silly mouse; etc. I also enforce a break and a little walk on the parking lot every couple of hours. One of the down sides of no longer smoking is the lack of an internal pesky reminder to leave the room, stretch the bones and look at something other than the screen. Now I have to remind myself that breaks are not for weaklings and that the five minutes spent outside will likely result in better productivity as well as happier body parts.
