So they did the biopsies today under general anesthesia as they said they would. The nurse in Recovery said the anesthesiologist said they were pretty superficial. No one told me about calling for results, so this means I'm in the clear right?

I bet it's good to get that over with!

You'll have to wait on pathology before you know anything.

Best of luck!

You should know for sure in about 2 weeks or so after the biopsies have been sent to the lab, but superficial is a good sign.  Now that it's over, you can breath a sigh of relief.

So does it mean it's not skin cancer since they were "pretty superficial"?

No, superficial means that it wasn't very deep.
