AERO- Arrrrgggghhhh!!!!! Serpentine Belt Help!

I was driving along today in my '95 Aero and what happens? Suddenly, the battery light comes on. "OK" I think to myself, "I'll just go buy a new battery- no big deal." Then, the power steering cuts out. "Uh-oh" I think to myself, "this is starting to point towards the serpentine belt." I get home with the temperature gauge all the way to the top- I turn off the car, pop the hood, and the serpentine belt is off the pulleys. The belt didn't break- it just slipped off. Can anyone tell me why it would slip off? I thought they had to break. I'm not sure when/if the belt was replaced in the past (it will be this week).
Is there anything else I should have my mechanic do when he replaces the serpentine belt? Also- is there any risk I did any damage to the engine- it only ran "hot" for approximately two minutes, and less than one mile.
As always, thanks for any help.
