It's funny, I was a bit perplexed first time I saw a vertical bobbin setup, but the principle is identical. The hook just looks a little different as it approaches.
Your brain seems to be working just fine to me. I've met a lot of people (men as well as women), who can't do things as simple as replacing a tap (faucet) washer or know where to put coolant in their cars. I'd think that knowing how a sewing machine works puts you at least in the top 10% of technical ability, but probably closer to the top 5%
