this or that?

i'm torn.
it's the weekend which brings the gift of time(ish).  this week was jam-packed.  like the sit-on-your-suitcase-and-then-zip kind of packed.  (only there was no suitcase)
naturally after such a week, momma needs a break.  but also in my world, naturally after such a week, my home is NEGLECTED.  and it typically means that the days leading up to said week were stressful with anticipation and preparation and so those days were spent beginning the demolition of all things good that would eventually take place in my home. 
and so we have arrived now to friday night.  blessed friday night.  where i have tied up most loose ends at the j-o-b and shipped off my wee weekly-daytime children to their real families for the weekend and i get to plop back into the reality of my own one cute boy.  it was a totally productive week.  and i have already soaked in a hot bath this afternoon.  i am moving slowly and getting into the laid back groove that i need this weekend to be.  i need to disconnect from the work week..you know?  i mean, i'll still grade and do progress reports this weekend, along with lesson plans and prep work for next week, but still there will be a disconnect;)
the boy has to end his friday night promptly in dreamland at 8pm.  because he will be on a big yellow ride out of town for a band trip...his first (sniff) at an insanely early time in the morning.
thus the dilemma.

scenario1:
take the boy to his 5am duties hugging him and kissing him and wishing him good luck, and don't forget your notes, and be responsible gallivanting around the local(ish) waterpark, and all that motherly advice, and then pick him up promptly upon his arrival back at school at 8pm.  all the while I............clean like no other. top to bottom, spic and span, beautify our pad, and spend some time grading and organizing the classroom.  then welcome home tired boy, guide him to the shower and then to his cozy bed where he started off his morning at a totally crazy time.  scenario1 is also FREE.

scenario2:
take the boy to his 5am duties hugging him and kissing him and wishing him good luck, and don't forget your music, and be responsible galavanting around the local(ish) waterpark, and while i'm giving him all that motherly advice remind him that i'll be at the wavepool/lazy river all day (with the snacks, money and all things awesome...cause that's my bribe for him to acknowledge me) so after i watch him perform he can find me there.  i'll be the one with the vintage swimsuit and the hat and sunscreen.  and the book, and possibly the papers to grade.  i'll be the one soaking in all that vitaminD with no internet or real responsibilities other than to be a base for the boy and to spend my hours forcing myself to relax: swim, layout, read, sleep, grade, swim some more and then repeat.  then when all of 6th grade band is loading up on the big yellow ride to go home, he can hop in the car with me at which point we will plug in the ipod tunes and ride with the windows down all the way home as we please.  scenerio2 is not free...but darn it, i was going to go to Oprah'sLiveYourBestLifeTour this weekend and that would have been much more expensive than this (so the justification has already been authorized if scenario2 is chosen;)


it shouldn't be this hard to decide.
what would you do?
