Bug identification. What is it? (Anthropod?)

So I dropped off some food for a friend today and noticed one of these on their sink. What is it? It is very small, maybe 1/8" long. I'm stymied. It has no antennae that I can see. Maybe it's a just-"hatched" thing.

Odd that would be on the sink, but that's the closest match I've seen. Thanks!
