Narrative:
During preflight, first officer signaled for me to come outside. I put maintenance log away without finishing it. Inspected tire he was concerned about. Returned to my seat and continued with other preflight duties, neglecting to finish inspecting write-ups. We departed with a deferred item and an open write-up that required maintenance action and signoff as well as dispatch notification. I believe the timing of the events caught me from my routine. I wish maintenance removed log from aircraft when it is not airworthy.
