So I untied it and had someone else tie it for me.

I've spent hours upon hours trying to teach myself and I can't seem to do it.

Practice practice practice

One question:
Drive a dirty Z or drive a comfy large Ford F-150

I'd take the f-150 with the hubby driving especially if YOU'RE gonna drive...

I'm constantly yelling at the computer, "Slow the **** down!!"

hahaha... dude, it took me a long time to get it too, and I'd have to rewind the video a few times, but literally once you get it, you got it.. you tie all your ties, and never have to worry about it ever again.

Once you've watched the vids and know what's supposed to go where, try closing your eyes and doing it by feel. It eliminates the backwards perspective.

Oh, and dimples aren't a requirement. They seemed to be in favour with news anchors and stock-brokers in the 90's and early 2000's but have gone away somewhat.
Whether or not your tie has a dimple really depends on a) how wide the tie is, b) how thick or thin the material is, and c) what style of knot and how tight you tie it.
If you wear a wide silk tie with a tight half-Windsor, then yeah, you're gonna have a dimple. A more modern slim or skinny tie, especially in a heavier fabric, will not.

I just returned from my doctor where he yanked (literally) my drain tube out. This was a new adventure in pain, that thing was in deep. I also got my staples removed and everything looks hunky-dory.

They did that when I had my knee surgery. With no warning and it was only the next day after the surgery. It hurt sooooooo bad.

Bastard.
