Huh, maybe I'll try the Weedwacker. In between Pimm's cups and bourbon and gingers. I was at Ave. again last night with B and my boss btw. Love that grilled cheese.

you may like the Concoction, as well. It doesn't taste much like beer. My blog post about it: [link]

Nora, I will have a sip of your Concoction, I do believe.
Y'all, my first water bill is $172!! 17,000 gallons!! There MUST be leaks somewhere in the line, WTF. They're going to reread the meter, and I'm calling my landlord. I mean, I wasn't even showering every day during that time, and we have a lowflow toilet.

What a pain, smonster. IIRC, if the leak is in the line to the house, it's the homeowner's responsibility to fix it. I checked this because I got a similarly horrendous bill and was terrified that I was going to have to pay to have my yard dug up. It turned out that they had to replace the meter, which was a messy project, but at least not on my dime.
Just when I thought my office couldn't get messier, I had to unjam the paper shredder. My paper shredder makes diamond-shaped confetti.

You might also check and see if anyone else's water use is going to your meter.

inorite? Gotta go home and see if the meter spins when no one's using it. And thank heavens I'm not the homeowner!
Thanks, Toddson. I'm pretty sure it's not, but I'll check for odd pipes when I look at the meter tonight. It's weird though, a licensed plumber did $650 of repairs before I got my meter installed, and I talked to him today and confirmed that a) he fixed the one leak he found and b) that bill is insane.

Smonster, I meant to say that bill definitely sounds insane. Although, I have never had to pay a water bill in any place I have rented.
