    Hello,

    I know your supposed to take a 5 or 10 minute break for every hour your on the computer to give your eyes and body a chance to unplug but who really does????

    I tend to get way too carried away when I'm posting at home.....

    I just got put on notice for the amount of time surfed while at work.....

    I've learned my lesson

    At home it is totally different as I am, at minimum, on for 7-10 hours....

    Sleep takes second to my web antics...

    At home I often watch tv at the same time (right now I'm watching curling Canada vs Norway) so that changes the eye focus a lot.
    I'll get a coffee or some water every once in a while just to stretch the legs a bit.

    Not me, however I do sometimes walk away from the PC as a short break such as having a look outside or to make another cup of coffee.

    I do sometimes check on the TV is another break such as for the news.

    I am just about to have a break now to watch the royal wedding of Prince Charles and Camilla.
    I am a computer and movie addict
