This is the story of a newly married couple who bought a house and are trying to make it their own while learning how to be married to each other.
Erin is a lawyer in San Francisco. She grew up and went to school in the Bay Area, and has no desire to go anywhere else. She likes going to the gym and reading fiction, but actually spends more of her free time watching TV and surfing the net.
Steve is a CPA, also in San Francisco. A Bay Area native as well, he decided after his stint at the University of Arizona that the heat being “dry” did not make it tolerable and returned to (somewhat) greener pastures. He likes fast cars, spaghetti westerns, and MacWorld magazine.
The House is a two-story residence on a decent sized lot in the East Bay. The prior owner made some interesting color choices, loved elaborate draperies, and promptly fired the gardener as soon as the purchase and sale agreement was signed. In other words, there is work to be done.
