Hi there,
Please be sure to create at least two, pointing to the two IPs from the list below.
- 192.0.78.12
- 192.0.78.13

Now I am really lost. I just took a look and those are not full I.P. addresses. How do I “create” them? I believe that I need what the current one is. Befuddled.

Those are the current ones. We don’t have a single IP address for your site since we have your site on a number of geographically-diverse servers to improve speed and uptime.
Normally we give these out for users who want to map their domain using A records to WordPress.com. But, if those don’t work, I’m not quite sure what you need.

Hi! I’m trying to point my domain name from GoDaddy to WordPress. In order to do so, GoDaddy needs the IP address, or, A Record, for my wordpress site, which is currently: diagonalparking.wordpress.com. Would you please give me this information as soon as possible so I can remap my domain and launch the site immediately.
Thank You ~ jayni

I believe your question is actually the reverse of what this thread is focused on. I believe your question is: How do I map to an existing domain from my WordPress.COM blog?WordPress.com does not accept domain transfers but mapping an existing domain is possible.
Domain mapping of an existing domain URL that you already own and purchased elsewhere is not done free of charge. You will have to renew the domain name purchase where you made it, and the domain mapping purchase here every year.
Mapping an existing domain costs $13. annually. In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com subdomain blog to map from and it does not matter what that underlying .wordpress.com URL is. It does not have to match the domain URL. If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog you log in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchase a domain name by purchasing an annually renewable domain mapping upgrade for the blog.
If you own that domain then see here for mapping an existing domain that you already own http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
Dashboard > Store > My Upgrades is where you do the primary blog set up knowing it can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.
All that changes when you are domain mapping is the URL and nothing else. The content stays exactly where it is. Payment methods are found at http://en.support.wordpress.com/payment/
If you succeed at purchasing the domain mapping upgrade it will be reflected at these two spots:
Dashboard > Store > My Upgrades
http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-upgrades/Dashboard > Store > Billing History
