Default Brakes not releasing

I'm having a really weird issue with my brakes. I haven't moved the car since I came home from work yesterday. A couple of hours ago I went out there to adjust my RJM clutch pedal. When i finished I fired up the car and drove it to my apartment complexes office. The brakes were really touchy. The second time I pushed the brake pedal my seat belt had to stop me from eating the steering wheel. I parked the car and went into the office. When i came back out a few minutes later the brakes were fine. Until the second time I touched the brakes again. Then they clamped down. I was approaching an incline so i put the car in nuetral and tried to let it roll downhill. I could feel the brakes engaging and car came to a stop. I had to give the car a lot of gas to get it into my garage. Once in there I turned the car off and on and the brakes released again because the car rolled back while in nuetral.

I can't think of anything I could have done to affect the brakes while I was adjusting the clutch pedal. I also checked the brake fluid and it's clean and full.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
