  Hi there. I’m afraid there’s no reset button for your theme and blog settings. If you want to start completely from scratch in that regard, the easiest is to register a completely new blog. As you only have one post thus far that shouldn’t upset things too much. See here for how to do that: http://en.support.wordpress.com/create-a-blog/#adding-new-site%C2%A0to-an-existing-account

  Also note you don’t have to delete your existing site. Rather set it to private, then you can use it as a test site to try out new themes before you apply them to your main blog. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
