Northern Oregon, found indoors

I find these every once in a while indoors. I know the photo quality isn't great, but this thing was smaller than a grain of rice.

It has very thin legs and I believe a pair of wings were sticking out from under it's shell on top? It kind of resembles a beetle to my completely untrained eye.

Can anyone tell me what it is? or is the picture quality too poor?

Looks like our familiar old friend the Carpet Beetle. Example pic here. They don't bite or sting, but some folks are allergic to their hairy larvae.
