Had one visit very early in the year. I figured it was them and yelled an expletive at the door. I was already irritated by something and was not in the mood. My jw wife went to the door, talked to them for a little while and they left. Haven't heard from them since.
So where the hell is my big fat Greek shepherding call?

I did not get my call either and they know I am on the internet.

Angharad, I'm sure you resemble the Barbie doll from the old Babylon book more than the frowzy whore from the newer Revelation book.
And I join your ranks as one of the terribly lonely people considered unworthy of a shepherding call. My publisher card is buried in the files of one of the most uncaring, lazy congregations I've ever seen, at Big Tex's suggestion, and since I never went to a meeting there or got "established" at a book study, there isn't any one elder who is responsible for me, assuming that anyone there would care to do the "right" thing anyway.

I'm trying not to laugh as I write this, some of your posts are hilarious. Okay, no call or visit for me either - they haven't attempted it in the 6 months I've been inactive, but out of the blue, one of those - pioneer or die trying - called me last Sunday. Said in the most honey sweet voice - 'We miss you, we love you, there is a special bethal speaker coming to the hall today you're coming aren't you? You have to come! Jehovah wants you there!' I know in her own warped way she's sincere so I said, 'Thank you for the invitation but I have other plans, I'm quite busy these days but I appreciate your call, bye-bye.' I was amazed that the guilt buzz words just don't work on me anymore - Victorian Sky

No I didn't get one either!
My theory is, if you have a JW partner they ask them for us if there is any change with how we feel.
