Default Drop plans dropped due to sprinkler head!

Opened my mail today. I got a f_cking water bill for $300! I told my roommate (who occasionally pays half his rent) and he says, " Oh yeah, when your sprinklers come on, there are like fountains of water shooting across the back yard, and it gets all flooded." I said "for how long?" He said, "I don't know, maybe a month since I've noticed."
The sprinkler heads came off, either chewed off by HIS dogs, or just came off. Who knows.
This happenned before and I had 3 consecutive $150-200 bills.

Goodbye, tein springs, and fender roll; maybe some other time...

I'm just going to turn my water off for awhile. Hopefully the rain will last. Maybe I can make up for it...

Who the f**k needs grass in AZ anyway? There is some kind of government or state grant to convert your grass to Desertscape or something for free or little cost or something, I would look into that...

Sorry to hear about the bill dude. I've been surprised by huge bills before too, it's not fun.

I got grass front and back. Coming from NYC I couldn't imagine living with desert landscaping bad enough every house is off white/brown in this town already. Need some greenery.
