Pay careful attention

Here's the last word for you

The word is

Nerdy

and it is obtained by:

Looking for homophones of numbers (or just numbers) in each line, and looking at that index in each word (or the index - 1, if you're a programmer :-) )

Specifically:

One word... [Nothing]
...be considered too (two) [Pentagon]
I ate (eight) pizza... [Clockwork]
Pay careful attention [Bumfuzzled]
...word for (four) you [Praying]

This fits the hints because:

It is a five-letter word contained within the OP's name, which makes it rather familiar to them...and, hopefully, more familiar to the community as time goes on (welcome to the puzzling forum!)
