Narrative:
After being cleared for the ILS runway 1L approach and cleared to land I noticed that the txwys were loaded with aircraft heading for runway 1L and that my destination (FBO) was at the end of runway 1L the runway I requested a long landing for the end of the runway. The controller said that he was unable due to landing aircraft behind me, but I could use runway 31. As I was getting ready to turn mid-field final for runway 31 the controller asked if I intended to go around. I replied no that I was starting my turn for runway 31. After landing the controller stated that he meant that I should land on runway 1L and turn off on runway 31. He had me contact ground and they told me to call the tower. If I didn't concern myself with the traffic behind me and the congestion on the taxiway I wouldn't have had this miscom. No more requests on final.
