How can I delete my account?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you delete the blog the URL cannot be registered and used again by you or by anyone else. Deleting a blog URL is forever. Deleting the content and retaining the URL may be the better way to go. That’s why we recommend making blogs private and using them for backup or testing purposes instead. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
Provided you are logged in under the exact same username account that registered the blog you can delete any blog registered under that username by using these instructions. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
Note that deleted blog URLs are not recycled.

Although username accounts are not deleted, so you cannot be impersonated and have your reputation affected by anyone registering the same username in the future, there are steps you can take that amount to removing all personal information and result in leaving only a throwaway email address behind. http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/
1. You can go to My Account->Edit Profile and remove all data except the account name and an email address. Create a throwaway email address and change the account email to that throwaway address. This only leaves the username behind.
2. To unsubscribe from email sent to you from WordPress.com, go here and click on “Block all subscription emails from WordPress.com”:
