Update
So, I carefully drive the 2 miles back to my office, turn the car off, then back on again...and the warning and half engine lights are gone. Pull out of my office and drive it a little harder for a couple of blocks and the lights don't come back on. Should I be worried!?

Honestly you need to pull the hidden codes to see what caused the half engine, it's hard to tell without a code read out it could be anything. But it's something that is starting to go that will most likely progressively get worse. |

Same thing happened to me on a trip -- turned out to be pinched vacuum hoses, replaced under warranty. Have the dealer pull the codes -- it will have recorded **something**!
