1) Before I had a remote for my setup i would set something where i was going to be sitting, and focus on that. I then would place the camera in manual focus, and have a seat.
2) And with the focusing thing. What aperture are you using? If it is set to low, and you focus on the eyes or nose, by the time you get to the ears you can be out of focus.
