I just bumped into my stepdad in the kitchen--also in his underwear. We proceeded to phone up all the male neighbors on the block, who also came over in their underwear, and we all stood around the kitchen, grumbling and milling about and looking through the fridge, before everyone poured themselves a tall glass of ice water and retired back to bed.
