He really was consumed with his worries. I'm re-reading LOTR right now and that aspect really comes out in the book. He's always the one silent and grim, walking behind, worrying about choices he made that went awry and choices that Gandalf made that could go awry... I imagine being a king was a lark after all that.
It's a very well-done scene, setting up the tension between Aragorn and Boromir and showing how the Ring is starting to work on him very nicely indeed.
