Somewhere along the way I've quit using ispell and now when I do I get
this error when pressing M-x ispell-word:

ispell-init-process: 
  Error: No word lists can be found for the language "en_US".

I have this in site-start.el:

   (setq ispell-program-name "aspell")
And far as I know thats it in any init files.

I don't have ispell itself installed.  But do have aspell installed. 

What is the normal way to use aspell and have it all loaded when
needed?

'aspell config' will tell you where to put the 'word lists,' i.e.  
dictionaries.

You, too, can add something like this to .emacs:

	(setq ispell-extra-args "--dict-dir=<some absolute path>")
