I jus refilled my Diltiazem 120 CR and they gave me Diltiazem 120 ER. I didn't take it last night because I don't know what the difference is.

Please don't skip dosages of these types of medications, for any reason, you could put yourself in serious, life threatening danger! Skipping doses of such hypertension/cardiac medications may cause a rebound effect, which could result in severely elevated blood pressure and heart rate, which may lead to stroke or heart attack!
That said, there is no difference in the medications, both the CR and the ER are just different abbreviations that designate it as a time released medication.

Have you contacted your doctor?
If you really skipped a dosage, then you need to do so, your blood pressure may be higher than normal and it may require some extra attention, or medication to get it back down to normal levels.
