Select the pen tool --> and use the "free form pen tool" now press and hold the left mouse button, drag it there and there before release the click press and hold the "alt" button (i don't know what's in mac [sleepy] ) and with the alt button key pressed release the click, now drag the mouse there and the click again, drag and click. Before release the alt key (if u're no longer to conitune the path release the alt key and the path will be close) press the left mouse button and the release the alt button.

ApWizard! I followed your instructions to a "T" and it works! Cool!!!... You'll find that a lot of the tools work in interesting ways using the alt/opt key! My favourite is when painting - you can "instantly" get the eyedropper which is really quick and handy for sampling colours a you go!
Admittedly, this is the first time that I've picked up the Freeform pen tool in PS! [shhh]
