Ill start...What did yall think of the epilogue? It was probably the only part of the book i was disappointed with...I mean heck after 750+ pages..She couldnt extend it out another 20 or so to give us a real "where are they now" situation.

No matter how long the epilogue was, readers would want it to be longer. For any little bit of new information given, people would easily find a need to ask for more details.
The only important part conveyed by the epilogue is that Harry is living happily ever after (as are Ron, Hermione, and Ginny) and Voldemort has been commpletely vanquished (due to the comment about the scar).

I mean lets be honest. Harry wasnt going to ever just lead a normal life, but JK made it sound like he was just a plain old person.

Rowling made a point of showing that Harry was still being recognized decades later.
