What you'll need to start:
A stainless steel (preferably) stock pot, at least 3 gallon capacity. Aluminum will do.
A basic brewing kit. Northern Brewer item #7601 [northernbrewer.com]
A recipe kit [northernbrewer.com]. I would suggest a porter or a stout for your first brew, as dark brews are very forgiving of beginner mistakes. I would suggest using US-05 dry yeast.
A fermometer, NB item #7411 [northernbrewer.com]
Starsan Sanitizer, NB item #7930 [northernbrewer.com]
I would *highly* suggest some Fermcap-S, unless you like scrubbing nasty gooey dried up wort off your stovetop, NB item #9136 [northernbrewer.com]

Which kind of airlock do you have?
Exhibit A
Exhibit B
If it's exhibit A, and you have plastic tubing such as for racking, you can set it up into a blow off like this picture.
Do like you see there and put the other end into a jug, jar, or something holding water/sanitizer solution.
Should look like this.

My wife would be "frozen solid" with a house temp like that.
What size fermenter do you have? 5 gallon carboy? Plastic bucket?
