How to get my posts from Wordpress.com to Blogger?

I want to migrate entries from Wordpress.com to Blogger. Is there any easy way to do this?
I made the Blogger to Wordpress.com switch a few years ago, but love the new Blogger interface. I find that being able to label posts is a lot less restrictive than Wordpress's categories.
Migrating to Wordpress was a flash. But, going the other way seems to be a problem.
I've tried to Google this, and most of the info out there seems to say that at the moment, this is impossible to do. I've found a couple of tools like blog2blog, but none have worked this far.
Oh technically inclined MeFites, please help.
P.S. I'm not technically inclined, so I really don't have a way to write a program or anything to do this.

Googeling (Googling?) "migrate from wordpress to blogger" (without the quotes) gets me a nice list of results.
I looked at this one, a second one, and a third one. All offer a slightly different solution, and since I haven't tried it I don't know if any or better than another.

Response by poster: @ddaavvviidd: Alas, I have already tried exporting an .xml file of my Wordpress.com blog to Blogger. For some reason, Wordpress XML doesn't play nice with Blogger.
@theichibun: I've been to a few of those sites and tried those methods, but none of them seem to work for me.
Oh well, it was worth a shot. My old blog will have to live in Wordpress unless I decide to manually import it.
Please keep the suggestions coming, everyone.
