I'm in the same boat here. The only reason I use git is for github -- for work or collaborating with other people on something. And even then, unless I need branching, I'll still use Mercurial, through the hg-git plugin they provide[1].
Nothing against people who use git. If it works for you, use it. I don't like it because of its arcane incantations and tendency to let me destroy my work for the past few hours by using the wrong command. The features are great. But, not what I'm looking for in a DVCS. But, thats just me.

Conceptually git and Mercurial are isomorphic. (See http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/GitConcepts http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/GitConcepts for an explanation.)
