Mine did that after sitting for 4 days...went away after 10 minutes and hasn't ever happened again.

Your car is warming up I believe. It's completely normal, like the engine is just trying to circulate the oil more quickly.
But if it doesn't go down to around 800 RPM at idle after about 10 minutes of driving, then you have a problem.

if it was bouncing id say the IAC valve. You can take it off and try cleaning it but its a part that should be replaced if it does it again
