  I have 3 blogs on my account and I want to delete two of them, but not the primary. I can’t figure out how to do this.

  Thanks,
  Ashley

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

  All blogs are independent. Deleting one has no effect on the other registered under the same username. Provided you are logged in under the username account that registered the blog you can delete the blog by using these instructions. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
  Note that deleted blog URLs are not recycled.

  After you delete the blog you can chnage the primary blog linked to your username. Note this is not retroactive and comments you left before the change will still be linked to the deleted blog.
  Dashboard -> Users -> Personal Settings -> then scroll down to Account Details. Then scroll down to where it says ‘Primary Blog‘ select the URL for your primary wordpress.com blog and then save changes.
