If I lose my domain, what does my blog revert to?

    I have two wordpress.com hosted blogs. I want to kind off combine them.

    My main one , which I wish too keep, http://stephangiannini.com, I plan to purchase a different domain name for from wordpress that is currently available.

    I believe that if the domain expires, for whatever reason, the site reverts back to its original blog name that I started with before I set up a registered domain name.

    In this case It would be chicagopainter.wordpress.com. What I’d like to do is change that so it reverts back to paintedjournals.wordpress.com.,

    Unfortunately I have that as an already running separate blog, which i would eliminate. Since I control both of them, is there a way to do that?

    Failing that, how does one change what the blog reverts to?

    And… failing that, I guess I could move the content of stephangiannini.com to paintedjournals.wordpress.com.

    I know one can download the blog files for a transfer, but does that include everything, images and formatting, or do I end up having to go through all the old posts to get them right? I don’t know how complicated that is.

    Thanks for any advice you can offer.

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