Looking expectantly at the glass, mopping perspiration from my brow, licking my lips? A hard, grinning stare directly at the server? Eyes downcast, my hands lying dejectedly in my lap?

Staring at the shaker nodding your head. When they pour, get eye level with the bar and follow the drink level up with your whole head. Make a whistle increasing in pitch as you do this. Pretend to eat the bar like an ear of corn when you get to mouth level. Take the drink in both hands at eye level when leaving the bar. Say "you too" as you depart as if incorrectly responding to "enjoy your drink" even though they didn't even say that.

Excellent form, this is my new model to aspire to.

Exactly right. I think this was straight from Emily Post about bar etiquette.
