I work from home. It has many advantages, but one big disadvantage is you might not notice it’s a holiday and work anyway.
Dare I ask my boss for Tuesday off since I accidentally worked the holiday anyway?

Sounds like you’re salaried. Generally those jobs care about getting your work done more than watching a clock or waiting for phones to ring
If you have a decent boss, explaining what happened and asking if you can just take off a different day this coming week would probably be fine, even if Tuesday isn’t feasible on such short notice. Personally, I’d be gunning for Friday (assuming you have the normal weekend days off)
If that conversation is considered a problem, then it’s time to see if the company’s competitors are hiring for your position
This is the actual answer. My boss is awesome and this isn’t really a problem.
I mostly just felt the urge to revel in my stupidity once I realized what happened 🫠
It explained why it was such a nice quiet day. I was able to get more than usual done 😅
