Jump-start/Check engine light

Okay I did a stupid thing. Washed the car, washed the top, cleaned the leather, conditioned the leather, conditioned the top, etc., all while listening to the radio, moving the electric seats back and forth, raising and lowering the top, and forgetting to take the key out of the "on" position for a half hour while the daytime running lights drained the battery.
Thankfully, Saab Roadside Assistance saved the day by jumping my battery; problem is the "Check Engine" light has been on since then (about 24 hours). Had 3 driving cycles since then and 75 miles and it hasn't gone off. No ill performance, car drives wonderfully and starts instantly (love this car).
Is this due to a surge to the system? Or did I screw up the ignition by trying to start it via a dead battery?
An extremely clean 1999 93 convertible 35K, auto.
