Subject: ActiveRecord Problem

Ugh. ActiveRecord is giving me a hard time.

I go to connect to my mysql database on localhost, and I get rejected!
Actual IRB session:
character.rb(main):015:0* class Character < ActiveRecord::Base; end
=> nil
character.rb(main):016:0> puts Character.find(:first).firstn
Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - /tmp/mysql.sock
         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mysql.rb:99:in `initialize'
         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mysql.rb:99:in `new'

So, uh, what exactly is it saying? I just installed MySQL through the  
directions (word for word) from the Apple website.

Ruby 1.8.6, Mac, OS X powerpc

Thanks,
