Out of curiosity, what decision do you anticipate taking for your personal site that would be informed by data from Google Analytics? In a commercial setting, it would be for things like adjusting marketing budgets (presumably not applicable), reviewing hosting infrastructure (you seem to have that taken care of), adjusting content strategy (not an issue if you're publishing on your own terms?) etc.
