I would definitely fess up now.  I have found that my boss is more sympathetic and understanding when I am honest and forthright as soon as I make a mistake.  It happened just the other day.  I made a mistake, not huge but still, he was screaming and yelling in his office about it, I came in and said "it was my mistake, I forgot to mail that and will take care of it immediately".  His demeanor changed immediately, he calmly said "okay, please be more careful" and the whole thing was done.

I would be uncomfortable with that hanging over me all weekend.
