You should be able to resize the window after setting 'guioptions' with

    set guioptions=aeik
    set lines=45

There is a corresponding 'columns' option too, so you might be able to put

    set columns=80 lines=45

in your vimrc after setting 'guioptions' and then you wouldn't need the
"-geom" flag in your alias anymore. (If you want different window sizes in
different situations, though, maybe this wouldn't make sense.)
