I don't think you're going to be able to do what you want in an ad-hoc 
way, i.e. without using an fstab entry.  Take a look at both the "user" 
and "users" options (the latter which is more permissive), in the 
mount(8) man page.  These both seem to work when placed in /etc/fstab 
entries, but not from the mount command line.

An alternative that has been proposed would be to set up something using 
sudo, but either way, you're looking at setting up a config file, rather 
than just doing this with a few ad-hoc commands.
