 While running it was about a third of an inch under the full 
line, and when I let it set it was about a 1/4 of an inch over.  I never 
noticed this before, is this normal?

Chris, yes, that is normal.  When the engine is running, oil is being pumped out of the oil pan.  When the engine is shut off, the oil begins to drain back into the oil pan, raising the level.
