I spent all day putting together Ikea furniture (with the invaluable assistance of [livejournal.com profile] vschanoes ): this has resulted in a newly organized apartment, a blistered thumb, a great sense of satisfaction, and the coining of the phrase, "having an Ikea moment."  

It's sort of like a blonde moment, but accessible to a larger portion of the population: it references that indefinable frustration that occurs when, at the very last minute possible, you realize you've put something together wrong, and you don't know how.  I'm sure there's already a word for it, and I'm sure it's in German.
