Yep. I take a short shower, put on lotion, brush my teeth and put on clean night things. It helps put me to sleep, which I have a lot of trouble doing at night.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I don't feel I have to hide them from people.
Makes me feel like I have dirty clothes hanging around, as opposed to in-process clothes.
I have a random question--when you make your bed, or when you leave your bed for the day, what do you do with your nightclothes. We were taught to fold them and put them under the pillow
I usually just throw them on the bed in the general direction of the pillow. If I am making the bed (a rare thing), they go under the pillow. sometimes they reside on the floor if I do not take a shower when i get up (i.e. get up and change into work out clothes)

thanks DJ
Nightclothes - I was taught under the pillow - I think hook hanging is more practical - lets them air out. Of course, they are really inside clothes, because I don't wear them to bed.
I have never heard of this under the pillow thing, and I also throw the previous night's nightclothes into the laundry. I've never considered doing it differently, and it's not because I'm particularly fastidious.
what do you do with your nightclothes
Straight into the laundry, typically {Yes, every night new stuff. I have somehow managed to acquire a lot of pajamas and nighties}. Or onto the floor and later into the laundry. Occasionally folded up and tucked under the pillow [this is not how I was raised, this is something I picked up from books], or folded and left on the nightstand. Folded and into my luggage if I am Away, because I am all about making it appear that I am not actually there when I am staying in someone else's house or in a hotel.
Under the pillow is definitely Where Nightclothes Go.
I have never heard of this before. My nightclothes (when I wear them) are my slounging clothes, so they get folded up and put on top of the Slounging Pile in the morning.
bon, my sister in doing more laundry than we apparently have to.
And -t
Damn, now I want to do a poll of Where Are You From and Where Are Your Parents From and What Type of Family Did You Come From to see what's up with the nightclothes-under-the-pillow thing.
Also, I'm still sick, and I don't like it! I had a three-hour meeting in Manhattan, went grocery shopping, and I'm still too tired to want to cook dinner. "Luckily," there are pretzels within reach.
from the Wikipedia page on the Harlem Globetrotters:
The Globetrotters were initially a serious competitive team, and despite a flair for entertainment, they would only clown for the audience after establishing a safe lead in the game. In 1937, they accepted an invitation to participate in the World Professional Basketball Tournament, where they met the New York Rens in the semi-finals in the first big clash of the two greatest all-black professional basketball teams. The Rens defeated the Globetrotters and went on to win the Tournament, but in 1940 the Globetrotters avenged their loss by defeating the Rens in the quarterfinals and advancing to the championship game, where they beat the Chicago Bruins in overtime by a score of 37–36.
The Globetrotters beat the premier professional team, the Minneapolis Lakers (led by George Mikan), for two years in a row in 1948 and 1949, with the Lakers winning later contests. The February 1948 win (by a score of 61-59, on a buzzer beater) was a hallmark in professional basketball history, as the all-black Globetrotters proved they were on an equal footing with the all-white Lakers. Momentum for ending the National Basketball Association's color line grew, and in 1950, Chuck Cooper became the first black player drafted by an NBA team. From that time on the Globetrotters had increasing difficulty attracting and retaining top talent.
