Hah, I am definitely aware of the danger of ESD. I just don't have a place near my desk to mount my anti-ESD wristband.

What I did instead was touching a radiator every once in a while. Is this sufficient?

Whether you're likely to experience ESD problems depends very much on the environment; if the ambient humidity is high enough and you're not wearing rubber soled shoes on a synthetic floor, it can be very low.
