Default oil pressure,wtf!

today i was on my way to work and the oil pressure cruising at 2500 rpm was like 65 (mobil one 5-30 full syn.) and then for no reason it just dropped to 45.
i realize 45 isn't bad but what the heck is up with that, i think i have seen it do it before
78,000 miles,motor well taken car, oil change every 3000 miles etc.

any answers?

When my car gets warm the press drops like that, its pretty normal for oil to get thinner when its hot.
