Does this sound aspie-ish to you?

I haven't been diagnosed, but I've been fascinated w/ asperger syndrome for a while now and have been looking around here and there for info. Anyways, I've always been somewhat different, extremely quiet, in my head a lot of times, daydreaming a lot. Also, my sister is definitely aspie---has a hard time conversing w/ 2 people at once, has strange, inappropriate responses, eye contact is a bit off, etc… (Sorry if that comes off offensive)

Anyways, I was thinking about this one incident I had as a child. I was in kindergarten and it was parents day. When the moms came, all the kids ran to their moms. I was the only one who didn't run to my mom b/c I was very focused on finishing my puzzle. I remember thinking to myself, "I'll finish this puzzle and then go to my mom." Does that sound strange at all?
 
No, but it does sound aspie-ish. Just remembering early childhood that clearly also sounds a bit aspie.
 
Certainly does.

I am very like this that I rather focus on finishing something than acknowledge a human lol

Actually just now it happened. I am focusing on this and vaguely heard my husband say: oh blast but said it again louder and it occurred to me, he was waiting for a response from me!

So hard being an aspie
