Aw Michelle sorry you're feeling crummy!! There's all kinds of ick going around right now. I had a cold that hung on forever then a stomach flu not long after... no fun.
The text convo was interesting... hopefully good?

Wow, I think the conversation was really good. He wants to do the taxes, but seems more than willing for you two to do them together. He asked you to come over to do them and then even mentioned lunch again! I think you should take him up on his offer and try to get this taken care of this weekend. Maybe you could go there after work tomorrow?
Well, I'm gonna call H after I get off work Saturday (if I go to work at all) and we are going to do taxes. Since it will be later in the day, it is more a dinnertime thing actually. So, we'll see.
I successfully brought our chat to a screeching halt with the mention of him taking me shooting. Literally no response for 21 minutes. Then: I'm gonna go get dinner. TTYL.
I guess I probably made him feel guilty/angry by reminding him of one of the list of his broken promises. We were just having such a normal chat, he was actually asking me how things were going and wanted to know about school and such. He was even really excited for me when I told him about possibly doing summer school in Austria. I guess I let myself get too comfortable, it seemed so much like the IM chats we used to have when he was deployed.
I'm feeling a bit better today. Slept most of yesterday, slept most of last night, slept in this morning. I'm actually feeling more like eating today. I lived on gatorade and protein shakes yesterday because my throat hurt so much.

I wouldn't dwell on the mention of him taking you shooting too much. He probably just didn't know how to respond. If he said no then he comes off as a jerk, if he said yes...then it is a "committment" for you two to do something. Just remember for next time.
I hope everything goes well when you do the taxes. How long has it been since you have seen him?
That's a good point about his response. I guess I need to remember that more.
I haven't seen him since before Thanksgiving. I can't honestly remember the dates. We were watching Last One Standing together for a few weeks, but after the last time I refused to sign the summary dissolution which he turned into a huge argument, he never invited me over again, deleted me on myspace, and didn't speak to me for weeks. So, I'm very nervous about this. Especially since I've been laid up for a couple weeks between my ankle and now being sick. I'm feeling fat and icky. Plus I feel very vulnerable letting him know where I live.

I thought you were going to his place? Didn't he suggest that? Maybe that is what you should do if you don't feel comfortable letting him know where you live.
I hope he doesn't bring up the summary dissolution again...but be prepared for that. Don't argue with him, just stick to your guns. Try to keep everything light. I know you will do great!
