Death to the Spaghetti Electrical Cord Monster

The mass of cords under my computer desk was turning into a big writhing tentacle monster. My husband said maybe I should do something about that before it kills us all. Thus began my quest.

First I subdued it with bread twist-ties. That helped somewhat, but things were still looking a little too tentacle-y. So I bought a hundred velcro strips and a gazillion reusable cable ties, and now that monster isn't going anywhere.

Maybe I can't control or influence much in this world, but at least I can enforce my will on a pile of electrical cords
