Help, I'm a mess!

This is my first clomid cycle and my first cycle charting. So far, I've been a charting failure - my temps are all over the map despite taking them at the same time each day, give or take 15-20 min. I took clomid CD 3-7 and had a positive OPK at CD 12 though my temps have never really supported the idea that I ovulated. Prior to taking Depo, I always o'd around cd 13-14 so I was optimistic that I o'd sometime after the positive OPK. I am now at CD 21, had no real cm since the OPK and have been very crampy since cd 14-15. I've also felt queasy for the last two days and had frequent urination, etc. I was feeling hopeful despite the lack of O signs.

Today I go to the bathroom and have TONs of EWCM. Very similar to what I would have pre-O prior to my difficulties. I took an OPK and I had a second line but not as dark as the control line though I hadn't held my bladder for more than an hour or two. DH and I BD'd tonight just in case but to be honest, I just felt sore the whole time, not at all like I normally do when I O.

Seeing as how this is CD 21 and I've never O'd this late, I have no idea what to think. I didn't even bother to temp this morning because it's been so inconsistent.
Am I o'ing late because of the clomid? Could the EWCM be the sign of implantation? or something else? Or did I just not O this cycle? Ugh, I'm so confused! I wish my body would just cooperate.

Sorry for the rant and thanks for listening. I'd love to hear any advice you ladies might have to offer.
