surging idle for first minute

OK....If i can't get this problem solved myself, then i'm just gonna put the car in the shop on Tuesday. If it is warm or hot outside, and i crank the car, it bounces between 600 and 1000 RPM for about the first minute of running, then it clears off to 1000 RPM and stays there. And when its cold outside ( i live in S. Georgia, so less than 45 degrees) it starts up and idles perfectly. But if i drive it, and the engine gets warm, and I shut the car off and thank start it back up, the idle surges for about the first minute of running. Anybody got any ideas?
Also, while the idle is surging, if i turn on my headlights, roll windows up or down, or turn on my blower for the heat or AC, it causes the RPM's to drop even further.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
