Wait...
At a certain point, you have to ask, "What is two tasks and what is one?"
Currently I'm working on a GUI. In the testing phase, I notice a number of bugs. I can usually get an idea what's needed to fix each bugs and then do all the fixes before I have to go back to another testing phase. Am I "multitasking" since I don't necessarily tackle each bug separately?
This certainly seems much faster than shops where I had to always be working on bug X at any given moment.
