Some kind of bug?

[Stiganator]

So lately there have been these little bugs in my house. They kinda look like a pull bug, but a bit lighter in color. More light grey/white/tanish rather than black or brown. They have probably 10 or so legs and look to be segmented greater than 5 times. Ideas?

no, that's not it. They are more roundish with no antennae. Kinda like those pill or sow bugs. Maybe they are pill or sow bugs.

I'd need to see a picture to be sure, but it sounds like they are a type of Isopod aka Pillbug and while they are harmless except somtimes to house-plants, the fact that you are seeing a lot of them inside the house may indicate that you have some water damage in an out of the way place because they live in very wet areas & eat rotting material like wood or paper.
