ABS Dash Light

Yesterday I had to make a panic/quick stop and felt my ABS kick in. This morning when I started it up the ABS dash light goes on and stays on for the entire drive into work which is about 3 miles, I have a great commute, but the brakes felt and reacted fine. After that stop yesterday the light didn't come on and I drove for around 15 miles after the stop.
Any ideas or advice?

Have you checked for brake fluid leaks under the vehicle? Sometimes a panic stop will blow a line or a seal. Sitting overnight could've allowed enough time for enough fluid to drip out and give you the warning light in the morning.

No, haven't checked but I'll take a look tonight.
I may have jumped the gun on it because I've left the plant twice since this morning and the light is now off. Feels like the brakes may be a little grabby but I might be just paranoid. Anything to do with an ABS system puts me in cold sweats.
