You didn't mention a thing about your mechanical ability, so I had to assume the worst.

Here's a short write up I put together for bleeding the brakes. It also contains instructions to built a cheap adapter that you can use to pressurize the brake reservoir if you want to bleed your brakes without using the pedal method. With this adapter, you can bleed your brakes in a little over a half hour by yourself. Without the risk of ruining the seals on your master cylinder by pressing the brake pedal down too low using the brake pedal method.
Write up here.

I used my credit card from Canada - my billing address for the card is in Canada. My Aunt and Uncle live in Connecticut, so I just used their address. If you don't have family in the states, just find some address from a business or something and put that in... should work.
