Thumbs up Engine immobilizer in action

After work, I had a very small problem with my car. It's cold and was probably in the teens when i was in my car. I turned the key, and the car didn't start. I could turn it all the way and the engine wasn't making any noise. All my usual lights were on, and the radio was on, so i knew my battery wasn't dead. As i turned the key a second time, i noticed the engine immobilizer light was rapidly blinking. It has never done that before. I took the key out and put it back in. The car started, and i drove home. The key used was the key i have used since i first got the car in 05. I don't know if it was the cold weather that might have caused this glitch. I just hope this isn't the first of many to come. I am getting close to 100k miles.
