Battery percentage weirdness

So, I've discovered that my MacBook thinks that the battery has infinite life.
With my MagSafe plugged in, first of all, the percentage on the neubar only reaches 99% (with the JUice widget, it records 100%).
But that's tno the peculiar thing.
When I unplug my MagSafe, my MacBook still records that it's charging, and battery percentage does NOT go down.
Any clues? I'm stumped.

So, I restarted and it's fine.
Eagerness got the best of me -- my apologies for wasting valuable forum space.

I retract my retraction. Despite closing my MacBook, it will not fully charge.
So, if I unplug my MagSafe at 95%, it will stay at 95%, no matter how long it charges for. It's also stuck on "calculating" the time left. This doesn't change.
Weirdness.

Also, if the battery is at 95% or higher when it's plugged in, the battery will not charge. It must be under 95% to start the charge process. It's supposed to extend the life of the battery by doing this...

All glory to the hypnotoad.
