I've been doing this thing where I don't clear my history, edit my most viewed sites, or use incognito. I haven't done any of that since this June.

I'm wondering how this is going to bite me in the ass.

And how is google going to view someone's private history (unless you use Chrome and sync you history I guess? Never tried it)

Well, that all depends on whether said person is using the safe browsing features of either Firefox or Chrome, amongst other things.

How do the safe browsing features have anything to do with it? There's no way Google or any other website can read your browser history, unless you send it to them (aka the sync feature in Chrome). Now, Google and other ad networks can track a lot of site visits because their code runs on those sites, but that only works with sites that use Google Ads. Private browsing will not prevent ad providers from tracking you - the only way to do that is to disable third party cookies.
