📦 Monday Morning Inventory Replenishment

Heading out to work Monday morning, I noticed an unmarked car stopping in the street. Turns out it was the delivery driver with a package.

Then I remembered: it's Monday.

There wasn't anything unusual about Monday being delivery day—we just happened to have an Amazon delivery coming sometime around then. Normally, I'm hoping my supplies show up before I leave for work.

This time, the timing was a little different.

The delivery showed up right as I was heading out. 😂

Luckily, I stopped long enough to grab it.

Inside was an inventory replenishment for Forklift Yacht Club: 240 blank button sets and 100 keychains.

We've got plenty of buttons now, but nothing specifically planned for them just yet. They'll eventually get turned into new designs, and with Halloween here, we may have some generic seasonal designs to hand out as giveaways.

The keychains, meanwhile, are going straight into the FYC inventory.

So there I am, heading to work, wearing my Forklift Yacht Club shirt, and suddenly I'm standing in the driveway accepting another box of supplies.

And apparently the delivery driver caught the whole thing in the delivery photo. 😂

Looking at it afterward, it feels like a pretty accurate snapshot of what running Forklift Yacht Club looks like right now:

Go to work.
Come home.
Make merch.
Order more supplies.
Repeat.

The FYC supply chain keeps moving. 🚜⚓📦

The Beams Are Coming There are some things you design because they sound funny. Then there are some things you design because you eventually need to know whether the ridiculous thing you created in your head actually works as a shirt. Two of those experiments are currently on their way to First Logistics Yard. Halloween V. Christmas Forklift Yacht Club The Laser Beam Hawaiian Shirt and the Halloween vs. Christmas Hawaiian Shirt have officially been ordered. According to the shipping estimate, they should be arriving sometime between September 19th and 21st. And there's a plan for the Halloween vs. Christmas shirt. I'm wearing it from September through December. That's four months. Because seasonal clothing doesn't necessarily have to mean short-lived clothing. Halloween starts showing up long before October, and Christmas decorations start appearing before Halloween has even finished defending its territory. So why make something that only works for a couple...

Finally Here, Finally Home — The Shirts Have Arrived Today was the day. (Don't feel love reading? Song here, yes it's reads to you type of futuristic vibes) I checked my mail, saw the package, brought it inside, and finally got to open it. Inside were the two shirts I sent off to be made from my own artwork. Yes. Two shirts. And there’s something different about seeing your artwork on a screen versus actually holding it in your hands — and then putting it on. Forklift Yacht Club The first shirt was the one I was especially excited to see. Laizer Beam. And now she’s actually on a shirt. I put it on and just had that moment of: I can't believe I'm wearing this. Laizer Beam in her lift, driving with her sails true. Now that's right.

Something I can actually wear. And then there's the other shir...
