if you are concerned about it, a $20-25 oil sample analysis should be able to let you know if there is any coolant in the oil.
If the goo is at the top of the dipstick, and the oil appears normal on the bottom of the stick, you are most likely fine. If the oil looks like cream, by all means take a sample (and I'd probably change the oil asap).
One of the major problems with coolant in the oil is that the glycol will eat up bearings. Next time, use propylene glycol--much more friendly to bearings in case of a problem.
