How to delete blog but re-use the URL
-
So, basically, I got a bit ahead of myself and tried to change my blog address not realising that it was a simple thing to do. Instead, I created a new blog. Now I can’t use that URL for my current blog.
So I want to be able to delete the blog I created so that I can change my current URL to that new one, or, I want to be able to migrate all of my posts over to the new blog URL.Can anyone help?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Recovering or registering any deleted blog URL is not possible. Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and it must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click. Once the verification link for deletion is clicked the blog URL is forever gone, gone, gone. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
