No worries bro lol.
Glad you're gonna get it fixed, and that it obviously doesn't mean you have a non-runner in the meantime.
Just make a mental note of the fuel gauge needle's new 'zero' level.
Or if you know how many miles you do from a fill up to empty, then go by the odo. reading instead...

...Then you'll start modding...!! 
When you get the sender fixed, it is indeed good practice to always have at least 1/4 tank left i.e. regard that as 'zero'. Fuel surge when cornering (can't remember if left or right), means that anything less could cause fuel starvation issues, due to the fuel moving away from the pump's pick-up.
