Hi,

This is the way I have it set up my osx


$ sudo pip install virtualenv
$ virtualenv --distribute pytho_projects
$ source python_projects/bin/activate
$ (python projects) pip install django
$ django-admin.py startproject myblog

and that should get you past that. using virtualenv just makes it a lot 
more clean and organized imo. Let me know if that helped you out some.
