OPK with blurred results

CowgirlK39

I'm trying to figure out some funky behavior from my Clearblue OPK. My first round of Clomid I bought the basic digital one, which gives either a blank answer or a smiley face. We were unsuccessful so I am onto round 2 of Clomid. I decided to splurge and got the Clearblue test with three different result possibilities. 

I noticed with this one that the digital responses take a lot longer to pop up, but they do.  However when I remove the strip, the blue lines in the test window are completely smeared. Some weren't even there. I know it's measuring levels of the hormone but it's making me wonder if these are faulty. I have never had an OPK of any kind do that before. Ideas?

CBADs are known to smear. You're not supposed to pay attention to their lines, just the smiley face.

Thanks girls. I was just checking because the other version of the CB test never did that for me.

This is my first month using the clear blue. I got a smilie face yesterday so if I'm reading it correctly that means it'll display the smilie face for 2 days before I can test again?
