Maintance Required

Im hoping you can help me and tell me its nothing bad.
i have a 2003 honda civic ex coupe and tonight it passed its mileage for an oil change. tonight i got home after it passed only about 15 miles over. the first time i started my car up after it passed its due mile the Maintance required light is blinking for a few seconds when i start my car.. is that the computer saying its time for an oil change? this is the second oil change i have to get for my car since i got it and the last time this didnt happen and i went over a few. and if it was doing it i didnt notice? whats my car telling me?

thanks

JP
