  I’m trying to delete a blog I have created, the system said I would have to kill the domain first, but I don’t see a way to do that.

  Thanks for the help

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’d be happy to cancel jeremybrowningmusic.com for you.

  Before I proceed, there are a few points I need to cover.

  If we cancel your domain, it can take up to several weeks for our domain registrar to release the domain, and we can’t guarantee that your domain will be available to you again, once canceled.

  If you want to keep using your domain, but you don’t want to use WordPress.com anymore, you don’t have to cancel it. Instead, you can move the domain to another site, using the Domain Administration tool under Store > Domains, at the bottom of the page.

  For more information on using the domain elsewhere, please see:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/domain-management/

  Once you confirm how you’d like to proceed, I will get started processing your transaction, and will forward instructions on how you can delete your site.

  Thank you for your reply. I no longer have use of the domain name or the wordpress page it is connected to.

  I would like to completely delete the domain.

  Thanks,
  Jay

  I’ve canceled your domain, as requested.

  If you want to permanently delete your site, follow the guide below:

  Please read the warnings and advice before deleting a site, as we can’t revert a site deletion for any reason.

  If you want to hide your site instead, you can use the following guide to make your site private so only you and other members of the site can view it when logged in:
