What do you do w/ client pass-through expenses that I'm reimbursed for? Remove them from my invoice totals so they’re not counted as income and not list them as expenses?

Either way.  But if they are included in a 1099Misc you report it as income then enter the expense.

If I report the reimbursement as income, where do I enter the associated expense?

It depends. In most cases, you would record the expense in whatever account that applies (travel, meals, office expenses, etc.). Some companies book reimbursed client expenses in a separate account with that description (ie: Reimbursed Expenses). It doesn't really matter, as long as you keep good records.
