I"ve never heard of anyone having a problem with too much water.  I have heard that you don't want to drink it too fast or through a straw.  What makes you wonder if it is too much?  Is it bothering you?  My nut said that I should drink a hundred ounces if I can so I doubt it is too much.

Water Intoxication can occur but not in the amounts you're drinking (unless you take it all in one sip!).

You can, but it can be pretty hard.  I would watch out for your electrolytes...sodium and potassium.  Be sure you add a small amount of salt to your diet (don't go hog wild...just alittle).  Also some foods rich in potassium are; bananas, yogurt, spinach, oranges, tomatoes and raisins.  Just keep it in the back of your mind.  Once the humid summer comes to the south, you'll need to make sure you're on top of the liquids...but be sure to get in your salt and potassium too.  Brian
