This is also the story of how Linda and Alan fell madly in love, moved to San Francisco and got married for Green Card purposes; of how they got crap jobs and lived like squatters in a house overpopulated by weirdoes; of how they (Linda) issued an embargo on anal sex until Alan quit smoking and how they (Alan) decided it was time to take their marriage to the next level – an open relationship – while Linda bought a cat.
