Maybe it's also partly a parent thing, Burning Down. Since little children will usually eat anything they can find on the floor (hence the term "crumb-snatchers" for little kids), I got used to picking up anything edible quickly. I'm afraid a habbit kind of turned into a compulsion!
I can happily ignore dust for quite a while, but if I see a crumb I pretty much have got to sweep it up or else my mind will give me no peace. Uh-oh. Maybe I *am* a clean freak!!
