That's the easy part - I can try to explain myself, or you could get "The New Harmony Theory", by Frank Haunschild (2.75$ on Amazon). That's the book I used when I prepared for auditioning at Arnhem Conservatory (Don't worry, it starts "right at the beginning". There's a 2nd volume for more advanced stuff, but you won't need that now).

It's really accessible - I had the standard music classes mandatory at German Gymnasium, but found them insanely boring and didn't learn a thing. 30 minutes with this book, and I was all "This is easy! And it's fun! How did this jerk manage not to teach us this really useful stuff in four years of class?"

An eye-opener, to put it mildly. (Of course, one always learns easier and faster with a personal goal in mind, but still ...)

Is it cold in here?:
Thank you, I have a copy now.

This is like learning a motor skill and a foreign language at the same time.

Is it cold in here?:
Apparent success. After the duet a couple of musicians suggested that I should continue to pursue singing.
