While my bike is being worked on at TK's house I was thinking of driving the 250 ninja i bought the 70 so highway miles back and forth from my place to his, and i'm wondering if its too hard on a 250 to handle speeds of 70-80mpg for prolonged periods of time. Could be almost 2/3'ds of the way up the rpm meter i think.

If it's in good order, and properly maintained, it should be no sweat.

I don't see any issue with that. Plus, you're pretty thin, so it's not killing the motor to pull your weight.

Girlfriend takes hers on the highway with no problem. It does sit pretty high on the tach, and she doesn't really like it. But it is a streetbike and its designed to rev high. Hers is an '08 though.
