Ah, tangle toy! That brings back memories. I had one once that I would take to therapy and twist around like mad. It annoyed my therapist to no end. She finally said so and said that I was distracting her.

For the last session that I was to see her, I brought in this HUGE tangle toy that I had found in a specialty shop. I had it wrapped around my neck. We had a big laugh out of that.
