Interesting good to know that this exists; though I still have this 
weird gut feeling that the following isn't really what people want to be 
doing (though they may have to just because that is what it is):

$ openstack network list
$ openstack network create worker_network
$ openstack network create webserver_network
$ openstack subnet create webserver_subnet --network webserver_network 
--subnet-range 10.0.2.0/24
$ openstack network create api_network
$ openstack subnet create api_subnet --network api_network 
--subnet-range 10.0.3.0/24
$ openstack floating ip create public (1st floating IP)
$ openstack floating ip create public (2nd floating IP)
$ openstack router create project_router
$ openstack router set project_router --external-gateway public
$ openstack router add subnet project_router worker_subnet
$ openstack router add subnet project_router api_subnet
$ openstack router add subnet project_router webserver_subnet

And then:

$ nova boot --flavor m1.tiny --image cirros-0.3.3-x86_64-disk --nic 
net-id=953224c6-c510-45c5-8a29-37deffd3d78e worker1

ANNND then:

$ openstack network list
$ nova boot --flavor 1 --image 53ff0943-99ba-42d2-a10d-f66656372f87 
--min-count 2 test
$ openstack floating ip create public --fixed-ip-address 10.0.0.2 --port 
523331cf-5636-4298-a14c-f545bb32abcf
$ openstack floating ip create public --fixed-ip-address 10.0.2.4 --port 
462c92c6-941c-48ab-8cca-3c7a7308f580
$ neutron lb-member-create --address 203.0.113.21 --protocol-port 80 mypool
$ neutron lb-member-create --address 203.0.113.22 --protocol-port 80 mypool

ANDDDD then:

........... (how many more are there, woah)
