She smiled when she sat her books down near my library terminal. Instead of allowing me my usual string of strung together introductions she spoke first. She asked, "How are you today, sir?" I said I was fine and asked if she had found everything that she needed. She had not. She had spoke to Reference Services already though, but they couldn't help her. I had little advice to offer her outside of that. She said it was okay. I checked out her books and told her their return date. As she was leaving she turned and asked me what my major was. I told her it was Computer Science. She just smiled, then nodded a little and said, "I figured you for a computer scientist." I asked how she could tell and she smiled again, only brighter. She paused and thought for a moment. "You just have that certain twitch," she said, "but it's all good."
