Anyone else OCD like me???

OK, well I replaced the downtubes in my cooper, and if you have done it b4 u have to t/o the knee bolster and the center console.. well my GF was out there and was making fun of me for cleaning EVERYTHING, weather it was visible or not. for example I cleaned the non visible side of the knee bolster and the under side of the center console... and I took the cup holder rings off and cleaned the crevasses around the cup holders... Do I just take OCD over the top or is there anyone else like that? I always told myself its better than putting it away dirty, its off and easier to clean.. might as well.. Please tell me there are others like me...

You're not alone. I do the same. Tell her it's no different than cleaning behind the frig, or piece of furniture when you move it.
