"Now, I too had so often thought it a pity, that, in the singular kind of quarrel with myself which I was always carrying on, I was half inclined to shed tears of vexation and distress when Biddy gave utterance to her sentiment and my own." - Great Expectations
I have a huge vocabulary project due on Monday and my brain is pretty much fried right now.

Vexation or vexing means puzzling more then frustration, "The rubics cube Vexed me, and entertained my children". Vexation was shared by all when she entered the room dressed like a man!"

I knew very well that I had said the wrong thing by the frown on her face and the vexation showing in her eyes and what she said in reply left me with no great expectations for later in the evening.

"Troubled" and "irritated" is all I can find/think of.
