Default oil pressure jumped to 64-66psi while cruising??

just as the title says...i had just gone to go pick up some food and on the way back on the highway i noticed my oil pressure was steady at 65psi.....it definately was not like this early in the day and has never done this high aside from a cold rev...even then it barely taps 63. Its the stock oil pump. Normally it is around 40-44psi while 6th gear cruising and 60psi at WOT. Well as of this afternoon its remaining at 64-65 and going past 74-75 under acceleration. I dont know if somthin could be clogged in the pump, which i dont know how it would be...i change oil regularly and use the same oil everytime. OR if its the sending unit giving me an off reading...this sucks im supposed to take a 10hr drive tomorrow....HELP!!
