My water and sewer bills are almost twice as much this month than they were last month

What's your water bill usually? It's always been free everywhere I've lived so I've never looked at one

It's usually around $15-20 each month.

Have u only ever lived in apartments or something because I've never heard of not having a water bill for a house

I've never had a water bill in my name, only electric. Every house I've lived in water has always been basically included in my rent, w either the landlord or whatever roommate had the bill in their name paying it, and me just paying a flat $ per month.

Wtf

I figured they'd be a bit higher because there were about 2 1/2 days this billing period where I was puking and shitting my guts out non-stop and flushing the toilet multiple times every hour. But I wasn't expecting THAT much of a difference.

Check for leaks. They bill both based off water usage. Tis the season for frozen hydrants. Easiest way to check is make sure nothing is running in the house, open the meter and see if the leak detector dial is spinning. It's the smaller triangle. If it's not you either have a water thief or kidney is jacking it in the shower to much.

I don't think it's enough of a difference for there to be a leak or anything. Like when I say "twice as much" I mean my water bill was $15 last month (which is a bit lower than it usually is) and was like $27 this month. It's usually like $21

It might be a "catch-up" bill.  A "we didn't charge as much last month, so we're making up for that this month." thing.
