Madam Librarian...Friends?

Lately I've been too busy to go to the library, but today I decided to enter the 'Castle of Books'. I was greeted by Madam Librarian, who smiled and said "Hi, how are you? I missed you. I haven't seen you in forever." First I thought she was just being sarcastic, but she came over and gave me a hug. What was that all about? Have we become good friends? She informed me I need a new pass for this semester, but not to worry because she had put one on hold for me. Wow, personal attention and special privileges. Perhaps I should ask her for a cup of coffee and a donut to go with my pass. No, I think I'll request a new ruling which would allow all students access to the 'Castle of Books', pass optional...but that's High School.
