If it works, who cares what the code looks like? It can even be inspiring for others to see that code doesn't need to be "perfect" in order to get things done, and it's unlikely that people will think less of you just because there are some unfinished ends.

While it's true that you should be embarrassed by the first version and imperfect code is instructive, I would feel bad about inflicting some of our internal use tools on other people! :)
