Blogging Merit Badge

I got my Blogging Merit Badge in the mail today! Being an Eagle Scout (explains the attraction to fire art, eh?) and a longtime blogger from before the ugly word was even coined, I knew I needed this merit badge as soon as I saw it on Boy Scout Store. They’ve got a whole section dedicated to “spoof” merit badges with some real good ones in there. I grabbed the only one they had left of the blogger badges, and a couple others to hand out to friends at appropriate times in the future. It’s a good joke patch, but how long before it becomes an actual Boy Scout merit badge? Right there alongside “Citizenship in the Internet”! Now where’s my sash? It’s time to bust out those Sewing merit badge skills.

    guess I should have waited to get the tattoo… ;)

    * actually, I have a naughty Girl Scouts uniform, with self-made merit badges that are for, um, certain skills and merits. I ordered the basic uniform off the GSA site in their girls “plus” sizes (read: normal woman sizes) and customized the sash by making my own badges via iron-on printer paper.
