Can't you point your blog to a domain that you own and make it a .com on your own?
That's what I would want to do.

Bit of both, the personal one would be just to dump my brain. Get my creative writing side going and explore content I'm interested in at the same time. If it goes somewhere great, but not a big deal.
The professional one would be related to my job, so I'd be more concerned about it having good content.

I recommend choosing a specific topic (sounds like you have for your professional blog), sticking to a single direction, coming up with a name people will remember, and writing a couple months worth of entries before you launch your blog. Release one every week and give people a reason to bookmark/subscribe.
I was thinking of doing this, good advice. I figure it's best to start with a good stockpile of content so I don't run the risk of getting started and running out of content before a following comes.
