Sorry - I misread.  No, I can't think of any way to store them decrypted.

Have you considered using gpg-agent?  You can configure the agent to remember 
and use your password for a specific length of time.  Mine is set to remember 
for 1 hour, which I find quite satisfactory.  The result is that I only have 
to enter the password if at least one hour has passed since I last entered 
it.
