This thread over at LQ might be helpful.  It shows how to change your
default grub choice for *the next reboot only*.

So if you boot into linux by default, you can always run a script that
will tell grub to boot Windows (or any non-default kernel) for the
next boot.

[There's a script I wrote, and another poster refers to an earlier
command-line only script.  Or you can just see how it works and run grub
at a command line.]
