Hissing?

I just went to hold Magenta, and she's under her half log (warm side), so I picked it up, and she struck (didn't hit, luckily. I don't want to join that club yet :P) and started hissing like crazy, full mouthed!

I obviously carefully put the half log back on top of her and left her alone... but I'm sitting on a couch near her enclosure (not in her line of vision) and she's been hissing for a few minutes now. I checked her eyes, they're not blue... is this something I should be concerned about? I've never seen her like this, that's why I'm concerned... she's the most calm snake ever (usually lol).

Does she just not want to be held? Do your snakes hiss when they don't?

Her temps: Warm side is 86.7, cool side is 78.5. Humidity is 59%.

P.S. She ate about 36 hours ago. I meant to take her out to measure her, not take her outside or anything. Maybe that's why? It wasn't a larger than normal meal or anything... good size. The lump is gone.
