stand to one side of your skis (the downhill side if not flat) cross one leg over to click in, then swing the other over to click in.
if you're on a slope, clicking in this way gives you a more stable stance (at least that's what a patroller once told me; i just thought it looked really cool)

My almost-post-skiing OCD is that I do not say I'm doing a last run. If you ever ski with me, you'll notice that I call out at the bottom of a run that I'm done, rather than plan it out ahead of time.

My ski group is the same. We always stop on the 'second to last run'.
