I posted my first post at 7:39 on 1/1/15 but the post time was exactly 5 hours later at 12:39 the next day. Can I fix the date of my first post and how do I adjust the settings for EST?

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

1. Confirm your timezone is correct
The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General.

Select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.

2. Make sure the post that’s out of order is not out of order due to sticky post assignment.

3. Check the date and timestamp
For editing them see:

Use the images you see here to help you http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/schedule-a-post/ edit the datestamp and timestamp if required and then click update.
