Just let them dry out untill they perk back up. if they dont then you have probably over watered them.....

You said a couple (2) days. I only water every couple of days. They would have probably been fine without the drip.

A good option for soil is to put the pot in a tray and fill the tray with water. The plant will soak it up as it needs it.
