If you have machine joined to the domain and can log in with a domain 
user (which you should be able to do via cached credentials) you can 
peruse through the registry among other things.  In my registry I have this:
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-112718084-1284083569-2990761952-5532

Which is my personal SID.  The Domain SID is that without the -5532.
