Ok so AF was due 3 days ago, and my BBT has been high since ovulation but dropped right down today, does that mean im going to get my period?

It could.  

If you don't get your period in a few days, take another test.  If you are preg (and didn't you say you had a faint line yesterday or the day before?) it should be clearly positive, considering the hormone levels should double every 48-72 hours.

Is your temp below coverline?  If so, af is likely to show and you probably O late and had a longer cycle.

To draw the coverline, identify the first time your temperature rises at least 2/10ths higher than the highest of the last six days. Then draw the coverline a tenth of a degree above the highest. In a typical cycle, your temperature will remain above the coverline for about 12 to 16 days before you get your period. Whenever you have a temperature that seems out of line, you may be able to apply the rule of thumb, which says that you can choose to cover the outlying temperature with your thumb when you are drawing your coverline. Doing so will allow you to connect the lines without including the outlying temperature, making it easier for you to see the big picture.
