If I'm understanding you correctly, your situation looks like this:

* you check out a wc

* hack hack hack

* time to go home

* "Boy I wish there were an easy way to get these uncommitted changes
  to my home machine ... but since I'm hacking on the trunk, not a
  branch, I'm screwed".

At this point, you can make a branch anyway! Just figure out what the
"base" revision is of your wc -- that is, the revision that you
checked out:

    $ svn info | egrep ^Revision
    Revision: 1234

Now make an after-the-fact branch _of that revision_:

    $ svn cp -r1234 svn://server/repos/path/to/trunk
    svn://server/repos/path/to/branches/private-at-home-hacking-branch

Switch your wc to it:

    $ svn switch
    svn://server/repos/path/to/branches/private-at-home-hacking-branch .

You will _not_ get any conflicts.

Commit, go home, check out that branch, and continue hacking.
