Bring your laptop back to work and ask the admin to re-join it to the
domain.
You didn't need to make this change, you know...you can access your
workgroup computer shares/printers without changing your computer's domain
membership.

You can't log in now unless you know the local admin login name & password -
and even if you do, you can't open your old profile or rejoin the domain
yourself at home.
