In case you have been wondering where I have been for all this time, hopefully my new video will help explain things:
The trip went wonderfully, except for a bit of sunburn, caused by hours in my parent’s new pool . Regular blogging should return as soon as I’m caught up on all my backed-up homework.
NOTE: It would be a good idea to go to the video link and click on Watch In High Quality, as the one here distorts the images a lot.

Last weekend I took a big surprise flight home (the flight I almost got noosed for after forgetting to bring Twilight with me). I hadn’t been on a plane since I was ten, and since I’ve got about 4 flights planned this year I figured it was time to make sure I’m not allergic to heights.
As the plane began to take that leap into the air, I felt this strange thing moving in my throat. Oh no, I thought, Something in my neck is loose and I’ll suffocate when we go faster. Luckily, my esophagus did not close up, I survived the trip up, and had a riotously fun time during my trip. I also discovered that flying is awesome, and I just can’t get enough of turbulence, when the plane suddenly dips to the side and your body screams the whole thing’s going down. Really, it’s like a roller coaster.
On the American Airlines website where you pick your seats, however, they failed to show where the huge, obnoxiously noisy engines sit. I painstakingly avoided the wing for the flight home, only to find myself sitting directly beside engines almost the size of me. It was a wonderful predecessor to listening to the Scarlett Johannson song, I must say.
So there are some of my photos from back at the farm. I took even more than this on video, so I’ll probably have some new Youtubes of Isabelle The Famous Pig coming soon.

Isabelle has just moved from the Front Porch to the Back Porch! Her great Izzyness has temporarily moved from her previous home to take up residence in a big box on our back porch.
This came about when she broke free from the front yard again and got around to eat the acorns in the back, finally falling into a deep sleep in this big box the kids had been using as a playhouse.
