I made the same mistake. Used a Homeward Bone, then accidentally sat at a bonfire. I immediately opened task manager and closed Dark Souls. Restarted the game, my health was still at 50% and I was at the location I was before I used the Bone. So it doesn't seem like the game saves upon sitting down.

But yeah, it's frustrating. I'm only 50% through so I'm not sure if I'll be disappointed at the end.
