How annoying is this really?

So Wednesday H says, "Methinks I shall work until 7:30 Thursday so I can leave at 5:00 Friday." He skipped dinner last night just as he said he would and then talks at his dinner [while i watched him eat and I drank cider] about how he will "get out at a reasonable time manana, like 6:00 or so." Then he sends me a text today saying he's leaving at 6:30 and would
I like to meet in Columbia Heights for dinner? Then an hour or two later he texts me that he's leaving at 5:00. While I'm responding to his text he texts me that he's leaving at 5:30. I am really pissed because I can't meet him out due to the rain and Columbia Heights is either a bus ride or a mile and a half walk. I feel like I'm unreasonably pissed about this but he gave me the damn runaround and he hasn't left at 5:00 in so long that I was really looking forward to an evening routine that didn't feel rushed and to be out around people.

    I hate those rapid fire texts that change a plan 3 times in the matter of minutes. I would probably be annoyed but get over it pretty quickly and just let him know that with the rain it really isn't plausible for you to make it there.

    Can he just wait for you to get there? We're 20miles from you and the rain just stopped here. I think the storm is going east so hopefully it will stop for you soon.
    Hope you get out for a yummy dinner!

    It's annoying, BB. Really annoying.

    How much of this is in his control? If DH has to stay later than he said, it's rarely his fault. So, yeah, I get all annoyed, but not at him.

    It's sorta his control sorta not. He's given work to do and deadlines to finish it. He has to organize his day to get things done. I get if he gets writers block but that's obviously not all that's going on. I try to blame his boss and he says, "No, I just wanted to get ahead."

    It's not the tardiness as much as the dumb runaround.He has been doing this a ton lately and it's really wearing on me. He always asks me to wait for him for dinner but Howell is only so flexible. He left a few minutes ago and I'm evilly satisfied to know he's probably getting soaked.

    It's annoying.  I'm waiting for DH right now while he runs out of town, my kid is being super whiny for no apparent reason, I haven't had a second without his company in 2 weeks, and I just want to drop him off at my mothers for a couple hours.  But what does DH say?  Just wait so I can see him. So annoying.

    They just don't get it. At all.

    DH did this to me yesterday. He went in to work super early (4 am) to finish some stuff even thought it was his day off. He said he would be back around R's morning nap (9am). I get a call from him at 9:30 saying he was setting up some stuff at one of the bars so he wouldn't have to do it tomorrow and would be leaving around 10:30. I text him at 11:30 asking if he was leaving work yet and he replied at noon saying he was just leaving and then asked if it was ok if he stopped and got a haircut. We were supposed to have an early dinner before R's swim lessons last night but DH didn't even get home till almost 3pm and by then R was just going down for his afternoon nap. He asked if we were still going to dinner and I pretty much said "eff you" and gave him the silent treatment the rest of the night.

    He has been doing crap like this for months now, so I am there with you on how annoying it is.
