JEWELRY
You had better buy some jewelry tomorrow sometime even if you get a buddy or an assistant to help you out with it. A chain with a heart. There aren't too many girls out there who aren't suckers for those! Or a pair of earrings in her birthstone.

Do as I say right away and you'll be safe!!
First, get some construction paper and a bunch of pictures. Start stapling them together, cutting and pasting the pictures in different shapes and directions, and use markers to decorate. It will be a home made little scrapbook & scrapbooks are always thoughtful because they come from the heart. Put pictures and underneath little jokes between the two of you, the date you started going out, put i love you, and stuff like that.
Then ake a home made card right away with a thoughtful quote inside. You can just write, "I love you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day. I'm going to be busy today but I hope this makes up for it. Happy Birthday!" Then, stick the book and the letter on the front porch and ring the bell. Or you can wait for her to come out and give it to her.
Then when you get off work, regardless if you're tired or not, take her outside to watch the stars and give her some chocolate.
Here are some emergency flower sites that can send her flowers in the same day;

Ok... write her a note that will get you two together when you are free (say, in the evening the day after her b-day)and find a way to leave it on a) her car or b)her desk, with a single red rose. {Don't type it, and write neatly - if you can do poetry, that might not hurt} Make it a build up so that she is excited and wants to know what's going to happen. (make it seem like you had it planned)
Think back over conversations you have had and see if she might have casually referred to something that she liked. If you can't remember anything, think about her likes and try to find something that fits in with her likes or fits with an inside joke you have. If you can find a card - go for it.
take her to a restaurant that you both like (not nescessarily fancy/expensive) or (if you cook) go on a picnic in a place you like to hang out (or watch the sunset).
If she asks why it is happening after her birthday tell her something along the lines of "you're too special, a single day isn't enough so I had to extend the celebration"
But keep in mind that you shouldn't do anything that isn't at all like you otherwise she might wonder what bird has been whispering in your ear. Thinking that you had to go to someone else could hurt her more than finding out you forgot.
Good luck!

Work is important. So, don't skip it.
.
Sounds like the gf is persumptious about what you will do for her birthday.
Send her a email card so she gets it tomorrow
Not knowing how old you are or what you can afford it is hard to tell you any ideas's of what to do.
Wake her up with singing happy birthday. You should have time to run by by a grocery store to get a bunch of flowers on your way to work.
No need to tell her that you forgot. Just tell her that you want to wait for the weekend to celebrate.
Then make some plans.

You're screwed. Just because her birthday is tomorrow, tell her you're saving the night out for the weekend. I'd give her some really pretty flowers tomorrow but make a note on the card about the hot night out your going to have.

WTF?? how could you forget such a day?! ok, ok, calm down..relax...its not the end of the world...yet. i think that you should try and do something special for her. work, work, blah, blah. i feel that you should do one of the following:
1) roses (can be considered a birthday gift, such as any other beautiful arrangement) with a lovely card telling her a time and place of a really nice (or favorite, whatever) restaurant you will MAKE THE TIME to take her to this weekend. Say that you didnt want to rush her birthday dinner or whatever and knew that she had plans and you wanted to spend some extra special time with her anyways.
2) send her a chocolate cookie basket or deliver it yourself to her work, house, etc...either after work or before she goes out.
3) WHY DONT YOU HAVE TIME?!?? go to work, do your thing but again, make sure you spend time with her for at least a little bit.
OH OH OH also...
if you can, instead of the chocolate chip idea, pick up a manicure/pedicure gift certificate for her at a local salon (citysearch.com and look up places or ask your mom or whatever) she'd love it!!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!

Call her before you leave from work (give her time to get ready) and tell her you have a surprise for her and to get dressed up. Nomatter how late it is. Then take her out for a ROMANTIC night on the town (depending on the time dinner or desert) at a nice restaurant. A card that's sweet and /personally/ written with roses should be in your hand when you arrive at the door.

run to the store on your way home from work - grab a bottle of wine a half gallon of milk a sponge and some roses - when you walk in tell her to go get undressed and put on her bathrobe - pour her a glass of wine and make her a bubble bath - pour a cup of milk in the water ( to soften her skin ) and rose petals ( to lightly sent the water and also soften the skin - have her sliip into the bubble bath and sponger her off ( nothing freaky this is her birthday not yours ) let her sip on the wine while she relaxes, if she allows you you may want to try washing her hair be very gentle and massage her scalp - let her know you are sorry you couldnt do everything for her birhday you wanted to do tonight but this is to let her know you love her and havent forgotten about her so please dont be angry - then this weekend take her to her fav resteruant and give her a necklace - dayumn

first, call her NOW, you wanna be the the first to wish her a happy birthday, then order flowers to be sent to her and after work find her a decent piece of jewelery. my standard is, as long as it is not before midnight.. but i cant stand having to wait all day, it is like waiting all day for my birthday to come... it hasnt happened until it has been acknowledged.. it is not a selfish thing, it is a feeling loved by others thing... so if i get flowers at 11:45 pm then in the back of my mind somewhere my birthday was only 15 minutes long... i want to be reminded all day long... turn and look at them every time i think about it.. a small quiet reminder that 'he cares'....definetlely. call her now, send flowers tomorrow morning as early as humanly possible..

dude...i think ur totally screwed..big time.
there the solution:
no matter how busy you are, you will HAVE to spend time..or the whole night with her. if not, she'll prolly rememeber this for the rest of her life and use it against you.
so..i strongly suggest, reserve a table in a resturant, ya know, those will good ambience(candle-light), get her a bunch of roses...that should prolly do the trick.
