Fusion is probably confused because it can't find the old Boot Camp partition anymore (since you resized it). Try deleting the Boot Camp virtual machine in /Users/yournamehere/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines/ - it should be recreated with the correct information the next time you run Fusion.

I erased a funky looking HD Partition, %t236e67disc0 blah, restarted VMW and all works, for now. Thanks.
