Odd bug. Found on my leg for the second time in a few days.
Thought it was a midge, but trying to squash it resulted in it jumping very fast, like a sandfly.

Difficult to be anything but approximate with that image. Try
Tachyporus hypnorum http://tinyurl.com/pkydbsf , or Philonthus
marginatus http://tinyurl.com/nqtzhu2 (both are rove beetles

Best I can offer.

None of those look plain enough.
