I'm just myself, so I don't know that I think of myself as a nerd icon.

When I get old and slow down I want to look behind me and see all the fire and the wreckage and no stone left unturned.

You know, it's about getting out there and having a good time. Not about worrying - all these young books for women are like I'm 29 with a closet full of Prada shoes and I can't get a date. Come on.
