Proposed Scene from the next book or film—The LATER INNINGS

The 3rd piece you'll hear in this episode I call CYNTHIASYZER.

L is the Roman numeral for 50.

In this episode Cynthia N’diaye shares some thoughts and advice about health.

WOH NELLY! Her conceptual tempo is a lot faster than mine. I feel caught in a whirlwind. Sheʼs so busy, on the run, on the go. It seems funny that sheʼs the one who is so into house music. I, to the contrary, tend to stay home, working on one project or another in my house—writing, practicing (3 instruments), doing yard work or home repair work.

We did go to an awards event in Harlem. We sat pretty still there. Then we took a scenic walk along the Hudson RIverbank State Park. A lot was revealed both ways through open conversation. Very pleasant time. Quite leisurely.

I have not yet been in her car, but I wonʼt be surprised if she drives fast. Weʼre already “driving” fast—so to speak— though all weʼve done is hold hands. Oh, and we hugged a couple of times. Itʼs like we have known one another for a much longer time. Whatʼs going on here?

So far, Cynthia has influenced my music. Who would have ever thought that I would be recording a ʼʼhouse track" ? She—at 5’ 7'', all of 120 lbs.—also has made me think more about what Iʼm eating, especially in this period of my recovery.  Her metabolism must be warp speed. Itʼs all exciting, but I (we) better slow down so no one gets hurt. I guess this would naturally be a vulnerable time for anyone.
