Found this guy in the house. Looks like he might have wings, but all he did was jump a little.

looks like Two-spotted Tree Cricket, a girl
Neoxabea bipunctata. The males have wider wings. I'm not an cricket expert, so maybe wait for this to get confirmed.

I agree, this is definitely
a female Two-spotted tree cricket. Cool that you found her in the house :)

My niece found a female 2-spotted in her house last year. It was probably attracted to the porch light at night, and then slipped inside when the door was opened.
