Help no flashing smiley, only solid

This is my first month using the purple smiley opks that are supposed to flash before getting a solid smile (wish I would have bought the normal pink smileys, but this is what was at the store!) I tested yesterday afternoon and with fmu today, both produced an empty circle. I tested again today after holding my pee for 3 solid hours and got a solid smiley at 7pm.
Is it OK that I got no flashing? Should I treat this solid smile like a normal solid smiley? If so, I'm inseming tomorrow afternoon!!! Anyone else go straight to solid, no flashing?? Thanks in advance for any insight on this dilemma!

"I had this the first month I used them, so called the clearblue helpline and the woman explained it really well.
Basically the dual hormone ovulation kits detect surges in oestrogen and LH and usually one peaks before the other (sorry can't remember which way round) the 'high' days detect first surge and 'peak' days detect second surge which is when you ovulate. By only having peak days it may just mean that both of your hormone surges occur on the same day therefore skipping the flashing smiley."

I wanted to do a decent IUI. Instead, I used a finger to guide the catheter to the cervix and into the cervix a little bit! So, I'm happy the sperm was closer to where it was supposed to be going! And in fact I may have gotten that catheter in farther than I think! Yay, I'm excited!
