CEL and weird rough idle

Hey guys, been a while since i've posted, but something weird happened yesterday and it had me a little concerned.

I had been away on vacation for a week, so the car hadn't ran during that time. The first time I started it up after i got home, everything sounded fine, so i threw it in drive and started down the road. After about 50 feet or so, my CEL flashed on and it felt like the valves/cylinders were out of sync(maybe a misfire? I'm not very technical when it comes to engine internals ). Anyway, when i would hit the gas, the car felt as if ti were jumping or hopping. So i shut the car off, turned it back on, and it has been driving perfectly since.

Is this something I should be concerned about? Or just a side effect of not driving it for a week?

Thanks for the help!
