Here`s your answer (if you haven`t found out already ;-) ):

I did the same a few weeks ago with my work laptop and the only way to get into the domain is to actually call the domain admin and tell him what has happened. He will then need your computer name and only he can get you access to your domain again.

Sorry, but there`s no other way for you.

Merry x-mas

Make sure you are logging into the local machine and not the domain. ie. Whatever the name of the machine is what should be below the password box. Hope this helps...
