When do you think I'll get a response?

You should hear back by Monday at the latest.

Here are the domain maps that I'd like for it to be pointed at

Once you have the domain back, you can set the nameservers following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/#update-nameservers

Is it possible to have that domain name (that I recently cancelled and would like to undo) onto wordpress.org so I could add plugins?

MNS01.DOMAINCONTROL.COM
MNS02.DOMAINCONTROL.COM

They may be able to recover it for you so you don't have to wait for the domain to be returned to the public market, which can actually take up to 90 days.

I don't get what I'm supposed to do now?

It still says cancellation pending?

When will that be gone?

To point the domain you registered at WordPress.com to another server (hosting service), please follow the instructions here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/domain-management/#update-nameservers

Note you will need to obtain the name server values from your current host. You should be able to find them on their support documentation, or contact them and ask for the information. (Name servers may be referred as "nameservers" or "NS records" instead.)

Hope this helps - let us know if you have any more questions!

Can I undo the cancellation?

Don't know - that is why I flagged this for the staff to see if they can help you

I will flag this for staff attention - but you might be in for a long wait for the domain name

I wanted to use another "host" (godaddy) so I could use plugins, and other things wordpress.COM won't let me.

I bought a host from godaddy, but it says my domain name is taken (by wordpress I guess), so how can I fix this problem?

Do I wait until the cancellation is complete, so I can re-buy the domain name, or can I undo the cancellation and change the DNS to one for godaddy?
