Obsidian is formed from lava, and I think can only ever be 1 deep (naturally) - so if the original lava was more than 1 deep (it often is, except perhaps at edges) then there will be lava under obsidian.
So in summary you'll need to replace the lava below it with something else before mining it - place a solid block and it removes the lava in that square.
Use torches and/or signs to mark your way underground, and help keep track of where you are.
Though some of the cave systems are so large and sprawling you'll still get lost, but that's half the fun sometimes.
:P

I found a room underground with a load of mossy stone, which I thought was rare, but there were also two chests containing a few little stacks of random stuff and a pig spinning in a cage (really). Is this normal?

That, sir, is a dungeon. If we weren't playing on Peaceful then that weird thing in the middle would be spawning monsters. It is called a spawner. It has a pig in it, rather than a monster, because we are on peaceful.
The chests (and the stuff in them) are your reward for finding/neutralising it!
If it weren't on peaceful, you can stop a spawner from spawning by placing torches near it after fighting your way in.
And yes, they are quite rare
:D

You should see my new house, it is significantly less cuboid.
