Syncing bookmarks between two OSes on the same computer?

I have a MacBook Pro dual-booted with both OSX and Windows 7. I want to sync my Firefox bookmarks on both OSes. Firefox wants me to "pair my devices" in order to sync bookmarks, but I cannot pair the devices because it is one single laptop. I cannot have OSX and Win7 booted at the same time. How do I sync my bookmarks between both?
