Yeah, weird. And potentially embarrassing, as TF pointed out. If not that night, it could still end up weird later when they get around to discussing b'days and the guy realizes that he actually did something with her but she didn't tell him. Also bad precedent.

I think it is only bad precedent if she is one of those Big Birthday people, who like/expect lots of fuss and festivities.
I'm not big into birthdays. I like to go out to a favorite bar/restaurant with friends and have a good time. I don't tell anyone. They feel no pressure to buy a gift or chip in on dinner, I'm not the center of attention, and we have a good time. To me, that is the ideal birthday celebration. Of course, the SO and I have our own special fun later in the evening.
I get to spend the day as I want it, instead of sitting on the couch.

Of course, depending on sports that they are showing on TV that night, I may want to spend the evening on the couch.
