Rough Idle

hey guys so you know when you turn your car on from a cold start how the engine idles rough while its in open loop? and then after maybe a couple mins the idle drops down to under 1k? Well today i turned my car on and i wouldn't say it was necessarily "cold" because 4 hours prior i finished driving it 50 miles. but any how, when it fired up, the idle was rough, as usual since it was kinda "cold" well i thought id give it a little gas and bring the idle to 2k to just get it warmed up faster before i took off, well when i did it almost sounded like i has an exhaust leak. it sounded terrible. Then when i let off the gas the idle dropped to under 1k and it began to surge as if it wanted to die. After about 10 seconds of it surging it went to normal.

i drove it on the freeway, did a couple hard pulls, no lack of power, no check engine lights, no nothing...

sorry for the long story here, but is this something i should be concerned about????
