What's a word for that feeling when the thing you dropped bounces off the side of your hand and flies off under the couch, or as you realize that you tore the tab off instead of opening the can?

Ooh, I like that first one, but I'm going to drop a couple of letters because "fruxasperation" is easier to pronounce. Possibly glom the other bit on the end for "fruxasperaging" too. Insert Humpty Dumpty quote here.
