I linked my self-hosted blog at http://charli.es via WordPress’ Jetpack to my wordpress.com account. I no longer have access to that domain, nor do I want it, yet under “My Blogs” in the dashboard, and wherever you’re asked what blog to refer to, that blog url is still linked. I cannot go to the dashboard and delete it (I don’t want to hide it, actually want the link removed). I cannot log into a dashboard at that url, as I said, the domain is no longer accessible to me. Is there any way to remove the url from my wordpress, gravatar, and other Automattic accounts?

Can it also be removed from all references of “Primary Blog” too?

You control which blog you set as your primary blog.

Here’s how to link your username to your blog in your blog Dashboard -> Users -> Personal Settings -> then scroll down to Account Details. Then scroll down to where it says ‘Primary Blog‘ select the URL for your primary wordpress.com blog and then save changes. Then every time you sign into the forum we can all click on your username and your blog will be linked to it. And every time you leave a comment on a blog your username can be likewise clicked and your blog can be instantly located.

@DonBrefoDesigns: it seems that your WordPress installation is not configured properly. Could you please update your site settings under Settings > General in your WordPress dashboard? You can find further information here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

Once the settings have been updated properly, the Jetpack options should be updated automatically, as well.
