Brad Barnd said: probably Mycetophilidae or related family
and
John Carr chimed in with: Keroplatidae
which eventually led me to: Proceroplatus
and finally this picture which is still very iffy as it relates to my fly thingie, but in the realm of possibility, and, as usual, I could be spectacularly wrong!:

Oh, and to make matters worse, it isn't as if this thing was more than small enough. No. Up in the right-hand corner is a tiny wasp. Good grief.
(UPDATE 2016-5-10: On 9 May, 2016 Chris Borkent ID'd Robert's picture as Proceroplatus elegans.

I can't go as far as species for mine, but Proceroplatus is a little more likely now.)
