Is it normal to zone out completely?

I will be sitting down at lunch and my friends will come up to me and wave their hands in front of my face but I don't even notice. I will stay like that for minutes with glossy eyes and rarely blinking. (usually after every couple minutes I will blink I think) I don't know if I am always thinking or just plain gone. Don't know how to explain it. IIN?

    That's normal. Mist people will zone out. I have it a little worse. I zone out while doing something, and I'm completely unaware of what I'm doing. For example I'll be cleaning up the dinner table, and zone out, and start to throw everything away. I "wake up" when my mom starts to yell at me. My dad sorta has the same problem. If you think you zone more than most people it's probably genetic. They have medicines for problems like mine, but you become a really dull person, cause it basically makes it so your brain thinks of one act at a time. I say if you can learn to control your zoning out, then do it, don't take the meds.
    Hope I'm a help(;
