Do I feel DUMB!

Flying west at 4500 ft I was "fat,dumb and happy" when I noticed I was in a
4000/10000 ft Class B vail. DIVE to get to 2500. I was not on the radio and
chose not to call approach.

I've filed the NASA form. By the way, what does that get me?

It gets you protection from being prosecuted (not sure if that's the
right legal word) for your accidental clearance bust, assuming the FAA
were to initiate any action.

Now, I guess, I just wait to see if I will be contacted.

It is unlikely. The Class B controller was undoubtedly watching you
on radar, but all he saw was an anonymous VFR target squawking 1200 (I
assume you had your xponder on). At some point, he saw your altitude
readout zoom down to 2500, mumbled to himself, "That idiot finally
figured out where he was", and got on with his life.

To figure out who you were, he would have had to track you all the way
to your destination and then have somebody there get your N-number.
Unless you did something really exciting, it's highly unlikely he
would have bothered.

Anybody else been here? What can I expect if contacted?

People make mistakes. The key is to admit them (you've taken that
step already) and learn from them. If you were just being lazy and
unattentive, make sure you pay more attention next time. If it was a
navigation error, go find an instructor and brush up on your
navigation skills. If it's airspace you fly in often, go up with
somebody who's more familiar with the area and have them show you some
good landmarks to tell where the CBAS boundary is.
