connect questions

hello people, i know this is probably a really dumb question, but i 
can't seem to connect to my postgresql db. here is my code

from pyPgSQL import PgSQL

def Connect():
    db = 
PgSQL.connect(host="10.0.0.1",database="training",user="pgsql",password="")

and here is the error thats out putted

"user "timothy" does not exist"

timothy is the user thats logged into the system. so what am i doing 
wrong which makes it ignore the user i'm attempting to connect as?
