Flipside, I don't see anything "wrong" with the things you described. My grandmother, bless her heart, couldn't tell a joke or a story to save her life. She couldn't organize the info to retell it and make sense. As far as I know she didn't have a mental health diagnosis.
As for taking things literally, IMHO here's a lot of variation in how concrete people are in how they see the world.
HOWEVER, if any of what you described has a negative impact on your life, how about seeing a professional to see if there is a problem?
