Default Engine Troubles

Give you a lil history first, i used to own an 84 Accord 4 door, loved the car, well hondas in general, sold it awhile ago and just purchased a 1996 Civic CX this past december. It has 278,000 miles on it, all highway miles. Last week i was on my way home from work, and the car stalled when i stopped at a stop sign, it did this at 3 consecutive stop signs, and hasnt done it since. Is this something i shoul look into, or is it something i should just forget about.

No sounds at all, it was like when you turn the key and shut it off, quiet, no vibrations, just sort of died.
