Are you using Stickies as reminders? I find iCal better for that.
If you're using Stickies to keep notes of things, I think the solution I gave above is a good option. Particularly when you upgrade to Lion... I barely use Stickies on Lion due to the fullscreen apps and multiple desktops.
i use it for reminders, so i see them more frequently. if it's just something i have to get done with no deadline, stickies are better for me
