You should be fine.  Some brewers don't even put the lids on tight on their buckets.

You are just fine... I ferment in a pot with a loose lid sitting on top. I understand where you are coming from though... There was a time where I was freakish in the beginning. You will learn that despite everything we are taught, beer is extremely forgiving.
