Clearing the space on my hard drive for the next rip and the inevitable batch of render files. Then organizing all of the files into folders, pretty much everything before I have premiere open and can finally start splicing. Once I'm in the edit, audio is really not my area of expertise. But it is also extremely satisfying to cut to a piece of music and watch a scene come together when it's all said and done.
Also, adding subtitles! It's typically the last thing I do, and as there is no way to sync a subtitle track to a fan edit (that I'm aware of), I type each line individually in whatever scene calls for them.
