You can't use 4 cards from the board in Omaha. You must play two and only two from your hand and three and only three from the board.
Yes...you had A high.

I'm with Zernej. Pretty easy to pick up 3-5 BBs/hr without even really thinking (at lower levels, anyway) playing 8-or-better.
Just fold once in a while, and they'll give it to you when you do have a hand.
To answer the original question, yep, A high. Exactly two.
Ah, we've all done it. Some of us more than others.
