Greeting colleagues from other offices

We have a meeting for the offices in our firm coming up. Recently, while attending a meeting I ran into one of my colleagues at a cocktail party. She went in for the hug hello. I was a little taken aback, but it was fine...

Is it fine? Do I make this the standard hello for the women (and the men?) Granted I work with this particular office frequently, and see them at meetings generally 3 - 4 times a year.

It's really starting to bug me and I don't want to have that awkward moment.
The hug is between friends, and very close ones at that.

If you think its awkward for you, imagine being a man and having a woman you're not that close to hug you. If she's at all endowed, she's basically forcing you to feel her tits. Granted, you're not groping them with your hands, but you still feel them. I always wonder if the woman giving the hug appreciates that fact, or even notices it. I assume she has to, unless she's got absolutely numb breasts.

Guys, if I'm holding a drink, realize, I don't want to put it down somewhere just to hug you. You may hug me when I'm drinkless, but not otherwise. If I'm holding hors' d'oerves, don't even try to shake my hand.
