BCP confusion

I am generally the face of perfection when it comes to taking my birth control pills on time. You could set your clock by me. So when I took my pill just now, I was surprised to see a pill was still in the blister labeled "Monday." I remember taking my pill last night, and I'm fairly certain I did on Sunday night, so perhaps Saturday was when I forgot?

I know that if I miss a pill, I'm simply supposed to take it as soon as I remember it. But since I "remembered it" possibly days later, is that going to compromise my protection? And if so, should I be concerned that I had sex last night? Should I grab some condoms for the next week or so?

Gracias.
