Subject: [ADMIN] psql: FATAL: Database "postgres" does not exist in the system catalog.

Sorry to bother everyone with this, but I tried searching the site and the archive to no avail. I have read the docs and can't seem to get this ironed out. I get the error "psql: FATAL:  Database "postgres" does not exist in the system catalog." when trying to start a psql session. This tells me that my install in not complete. I reread the the post install instructions and can't see anything obvious that says I missed something.
 
Any help is appreciated.
 
Thanks
