My Garmin 496 lady is confused

Yesterday I was cruising along on my way home when I get the Garmin lady telling me to "pull up' terrain, pull up". I was at about 4500' above the flat florida georgia ground. So for kicks I pulled up and started a 500' per minute climb. That's when she seemed to get louder and more urgent "pull up, pull up". So figuring she was confused or having a bad day, I turned off the unit and restarted it in flight. It then appeared to be working properly and she wasn't talking to me any more except when she appropriately pointed out an obstacle that was near my home field. Anyone else have this issue? I've had the unit for 2 years, never happened before.
 
Sometimes it's just impossible to make a lady happy. Maybe try giving her flowers on your next flight. :D
