Music theory for nerds / fuzzy notepad

Not music nerds, obviously. I don't know anything about music. I know there are letters but sometimes the letters have squiggles; I know an octave doubles in pitch; I know you can write a pop song with only four chords. That's about it. The rest has always seemed completely, utterly arbitrary.
