OMG! Ugh, I hate living in America, things like that never happen to me!!!
What did she eat? No, never mind, that's not important...did you give her any advice, like...say... change the name of the last book from "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows" to "Minerva McGonagall and the Deathly Hollows"?

That's freakin' awesome! Sounds like you kept it cool, which I'm sure she appreciated. I, on the other hand, would probably have gone total fangirl on her. (As I did when I met John de Lancie from Star Trek!)

Well when your boss is practically breathing down your neck and threatening to fire you if you screw this up, you kind of have to keep it cool. or at least try to.

Wow! That's amazing!! That's just ... Wow. Not fair. You must have remarkable self-control. I would have just risked getting fired and talked on and on.

I got to ask her a few questions though so it wasn't all wasted. There was some sort of crisis in the kitchen so my boss was gone for about 15 minutes.

I know right. I owe Joe big time. Joe spilled the special all over the head chef by accident and they started arguing.

LOL! She was so nice and sweet. She's a little tight lipped about the 7th book though.

Understandably I suppose. What did you ask her and what did she say?
Hell, you could tell us every detail and I for one would read each and every word.
Did you ask her anything about ADMM?

I agree with Eloquent...may we have a transcript? I've met a few authors, I doubt any you might have heard of.

Alright, This is our little chat after my boss had to go into the kitchens to fix the crisis.
Me: I really admire your work
JKR: Aww. Thats sweet of you. What's your name?
ME: Lily.
JKR: Oh. Thats nice. Thats the name of the Harry's mother.
ME: (grinning madly) Yeah I know.
JKR: of course. how silly of me. thats the problem with having a succesfull book. It's so difficult to talk about your books since so many people already know about them. Please, do sit down.
*I sit down*
ME: Would it be rude to ask you about the 7th book?
*JKR laughs*
JKR: Not at all dear. Though You have to understand that I can't tell you everything. It wouldn't be much fun if I did.
*I start to find it difficult to breathe*
ME: Were Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall a couple?
JKR: oh dear, another shipper. You've read all the books and watched all the movies, correct?
*I nod*
JKR: There's a reason I didn't stop the way Maggie Smith, Richard Harris, and Michael Gambon interact with each other. Your a smart girl. Figure it out. Or at least look at the various ways everyone grieved when Dumbledore died.
* The boss returns from the kitchen*
Boss: LILITH LAVIGNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE BLOODY HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
