lein repl not working

lein repl not working

I can use a clojure repl with eclipse, but I want to do some quick stuff
in terminal using lein repl but I just can't get it to work. Keep getting
this error:
lein repl
nREPL server started on port 51926 on host 127.0.0.1

Tried re-installing leiningen and also tried looking for a firewall on my
computer, but I don't see anything like that. Using mac osx 10.8.4
