Any recommendations on easing Zodiac drop pains?

I've given up with Dzemael for the time being, ran it about 20 times so far with no luck, so it's probably going to be the one I save for very last. For all the others, quene into all of the ones you currently need to do at the same time. Always have all four of the quests up if you can, and Join in Progress and try and quene for each of them. If you get lucky on a drop for one of them, put another dungeon in in it's place in the DF. In-between runs, if healing is getting you worn out, change to a Tank, or change to DPS, if it's the right time of day. I was doing Triple Triad the other night while waiting on my quenes, you have to be keeping busy while waiting, never just sit there and stare at the game searching for people.

Netflix and youtube and Hulu and the like also help a lot as well.

It helps if you have a dual or even triple purpose to running them. At the same time get some friends that have the same goals. Me and a couple of friends tend to queue up for 5 dungeons we need - even if not all of us need all of them. We split them around so that each has a chance at getting what they want, along with any in common. Once we run it(doesn't matter if drop or not) we swap that one out for another and requeue.

And when we get fed up we do maps, choco race, wod/ct/st etc... to break the monotomy.

After I finished (YEYY FINALLY) light farming with those dungeons for my sch book I was definitely pissed off by getting "forced" to use only this 1 class for a while. Now I ask my personal Asny which class to go as when we q together (sadly atm different dungeons but well may the RNG be with us). Its fun to use classes you have barely played since you brought em to level 50 ^^
besides that the choco races / GS distraction / raids
We yesterday even had funny luck on Dcs... we egi tanked snowcloak till Fenrir after first boss and bard tanked AK after first boss through as in 2 runs after each other tanks dcd and who needs to kick em if you can have the fun

PS: First Nexus made me sick of tanking this 1 sick or healing (dungeons with horrible tanks) but now getting atleast back to enjoy tanking

I had a bad streak and went a full week straight getting no drops, running 1-2 dozen dungeons per day.
If you get that level of misfortune, I recommend just.. taking a break from the game for a while. Find something else to cheer you up. Have a potato. Watch Groundhog Day or something..
